Bulmer was a Victorian historian, surveyor, cartographer and compiler of directories. His directories provided a history and geography of a particular area. The directories listed and described all parishes; listed trades and professions and provided a helpful street index with the names of residents, together with other local information. Data CDs of Bulmer Directories are available from publishers in the UK.
