SIDMOUTH

1849 HARVEY'S SIDMOUTH DIRECTORY AND GENERAL ADVERTISER FOR SIDMOUTH AND THE NEIGHBOURHOOD
1-?, 1849 (no copies survive), new series no.1-ser 5, no.52, 3 Jan 1849 [i.e.1850]-1 Jun 1864. Probably discontinued before Harvey's death in March 1865. His business was inherited by his son-in-law Culverwell, later publisher of the Sidmouth Directory but depite the claims of the Sidmouth Journal to be a direct descendant of Harvey's paper, there was probably a gap in publication.
