I believe the trade directories covered North Wales. Someone else might
know for sure.

Subject: [ANG] Carnarvon Trade Directories--or North Wales
I went to this very useful new website "Carnarvon Traders". The site will
eventually contain transcriptions of all the available Trade Directories
for Caernarfon, as well as Census returns, Parish records, and monumental
inscriptions for the town
http://freepages.history.rootsweb.com/~carnarvontraders/
While this site is named "Carmarvon Traders (Trade directories), I found
some entries that I am sure are from Amlwch, Anglesey--it would make
sense that the trade directories would cover areas of North Wales.
Am I incorrect in thinking that this entry could be my Morgans, who
manufactured tobacco in Amlwch?
William & Edward Morgan - High Street--1835 Pigot Directory
There is a High Street in Amlwch.
The site is useful because it lets you search by occupation, though not
by surname.
