Pigots directory 1823
« on: Yesterday at 12:44 »
I'm looking for any CLARK person which has an occupation related to Customs and excise.

In a Hollingsworth Guide for Portsmouth there were two pages dedicate to Customs Officers

Hollingworth is available at archive.org.

I made an image but this is a lookup request so I can’t post it here: send me a PM with your email address if you want me to send it.

HJC is at the Broad Street address, Clerk to the Comptroller.

There are lots of names, including John Holloway.

Added: just realised that the OP and title is ambiguous, perhaps you already have this and are looking for Pigot’s?
Boyd, Dove, Blakey, Burdon

Out of interest please tell me didn't look through the images page by page to get to pg 1201 Portsmouth. Is there a way to search?

Hi
There's no way to search it on FamilySearch, but there is an index in the directory which helps you to find some of the contents
