we have the internet now. Who needs a moldy book, the internet is the quickest route to a restraining order from a couple old HS girlfriends.

Your county assessor may have an online search by address. Or you can look at http://www.zabasearch.com

You are probably thinking of the old "criss-cross" directories. I want to say they were printed by Hayes or Haines or some such. They were pretty costly if I recall correctly and as time went on the non-pub's and cell phone users started to make them obsolete. I haven't seen one since I left the lending biz years ago, no idea if they still print them.

Wasn`t so bad until they started using that slick paper for printing.
No more Sears catalog .
