Leeds 1798 Directory - Nettleton interest

[nettle]

Hi,

I'm hoping that someone might have access to the 1798 Directory for Leeds. I'm trying to sort out Nettletons in Leeds in late 1700's and would be interested in anything listed.

Thanks for any help.

Thanks Oly, had forgotten about trying that one. Unfortunately search gives zero hits for Nettleton for that directory!

Hello again

The Leeds 1817 Baines directory which covers 1750 to 1849 has a number of Nettletons starting with, Hollings and Nettleton Wheelwright, Alfred Street, followed by Peter in George Street and four more below him. See pages 98, 119, 185, 193.
