The origins of Kelly's Directory can be traced to 1799 when Frederic Festus Kelly – His Majesty’s Inspector of Inland Letter Carriers – created the Post Office London Directory. In 1802, Kelly & Co Ltd was launched and later in the 19th century Frederic Kelly gradually built upon his original publication, producing directories for an increasing number of UK counties. The directories contain a list of all: businesses tradespeople local gentry landowners charities and other facilities located in a particular village or town etc. Many reference libraries still keep their copies of these directories, which are now an important source for historical research.
