Description:

Located near the port of Galveston in south eastern Texas, the city of
Houston is the county seat of Harris County. Harris County was known as
Harrisburg County until 1840. This database is a transcription of city
directories originally published in 1882, 1884, 1886, 1886, 1887, 1889,
1890, 1892 and 1894. In addition to providing the resident's name, it
provides their address and occupational information. It includes over
101,000 names, mostly heads of households. For the researcher of ancestors
from south eastern Texas, this can be an extremely valuable collection.
