CITY DIRECTORY RESEARCH
In response to Dick Johnson's notes about using city directories
for numismatic research, Jørgen Sømod writes: "I have collected
directories, phone catalogs and other books with many names
year by year for more than 30 years. They are for me a very
important tool in numismatic research, not only for medallists,
but also for medals, tokens and private emergency money.Of course is it Danish material I am collecting, but I have also
a few directories from US Virgin Islands. Beside the official
archives, of which some of them now can be found online, is
there also the Mormon archives in Utah. They have in many
years photographed the original material in church books etc.
in many countries and they have done a fantastic work by
typing that material into a digital use. I am informed, that big
parts of it shall be online now, but haven't yet been using it yet.
However I have a couple of times visited the Mormons here in
Copenhagen and I must say they are more than helpful."- 2002-09-22
