History of Freeland, Pa.
Businesses in the 1884-1886 city directory

This information was taken from a Freeland business directory for 1884-1886.

Note that addresses are in the old scheme and don't match today's address numbering. In the old scheme, looking at Centre Street as an example, numbers began at the corner of Front and Centre Streets and went up as you went north, and went up again as you went south, so if an address was 24 Centre St., it would say N or S Centre to indicate whether it was 24 Centre St. above Front St. or 24 Centre St. below it.
