Scollard's 1899-1900 Honey Grove City Directory.  

The Scollard's 1899-1900 Honey Grove City Directory gives names, addresses and occupations of individuals as well as the names and in some cases advertisements for businesses.  Please note that at some point in time (which we have not yet determined) the street numbers were changed, and the street numbers on West Market and West Main, for example, started on 5th Street.  Therefore some research is needed regarding street numbers.
