Walt Jones - 1898 Telephone Directory Look-Up
I have a reproduction of the January 1898 Inland Telephone & Telegraph Company telephone directory for Spokane, Washington. There are 13 pages of listings. Each listing consists of the central office, the 3-digit number of the subscriber, the surname, the first name, and the address of the service. More than half the listings are for businesses. Here is an example of the listings:
South 442 Dalrymple, Mrs. Blanch, Res. 03407 Division
If you would like a look-up in this old directory, please email me. Include the first and last name, and address (if known). I will send back to you the listing as it occurs. There is no charge for this help; just pass the help on to somebody else.
