These listings are taken from Barry's Directory of Hazleton, West
Hazleton, and Freeland, together with a complete business directory and
general informaton for the year 1895, published by Homer Barry in
Wilmington, Delaware. The selling price for one of these directories at
the time was $4.00, or $3.00 by subscriptioin.
Notice how few house or building numbers are given in this
directory. It makes it difficult to correlate these listings to current
locatons.
Note: South Heberton lay between Freeland and
Upper Lehigh, and was eventually annexed to Freeland.
