I know some of the Fall River, MA directories have the deaths listed after the 
name of the person. This is how I found the date when my GGF died in 1927, Ma 
vital records were only available up to 1905 at the time. City directories can 
help fill in some of the blanks between the US census also.

Lilliana, One thing you may find in the City Directories of Mass. is that they 
have a list of deaths and births that have taken place during the year that is 
being enumerated. Be sure and check the back of the book!

Thanks, Marilyn. I know it's a long shot, but would you happen to know the 
answer for New Bedford, Massachusetts?

Cheri is correct. It all depended on the city, county, or publisher. I have a 
pretty good knowledge of city directories as I did an inventory of city 
directories for the Library of Congress, in DC as part of my internship.

Does anyone know at which time of year the information for city directories 
(1880s to 1920s) was most likely to have been taken? Before the year 
started--so by January, 1900 for a 1900 city directory, for example. Or by the 
end of the year? Or does it just depend? I have found one ancestor "Removed 
from city..." and want to know the timing.
