Brooklyn directories

On January 1, 1898, New York City absorbed East Bronx, Brooklyn, western Queens County, and Staten Island (see Timeline of Brooklyn). For Brooklyn directories that are combined with Manhattan – before and after being incorporated with New York City – see New York City directories.

Brooklyn in the middle 19th century was a commercial rival of New York City.

Timeline, highlights, and creators

1822: Alden Spooner (1783–1848), in 1822, published the first full Brooklyn city directory. One of Spooner's granddaughters, Caroline Augusta Huling (1856–1941), was a notable journalist, philanthropist, editor, publisher, and reformer. Also, Alden Spooner → ascending line: Judah Paddock Spooner (1748–1807), Thomas Spooner (1718–1767), John Spooner (1668–1728), John Spooner (1648–1734), William Spooner (1621–1683) — was a second cousin twice removed of Joshua Spooner (1745–1778) → ascending line: John Spooner (1696–1763), Ebenzer Spooner (1666–1717), William Spooner (1621–1683) — a wealthy farmer and husband of Bathsheba Spooner (née Bathsheba Ruggles; 1746–1778), the first woman to be executed in the United States following the Declaration of Independence.
1859: The printing firm Wynkoop, Hallenbeck & Thomas was founded in 1859 as a co-partnership of (i) Matthew Bennett Wynkoop (1830–1895), (ii) John Johnson Hallenbeck (1817–1891), and (iii) John Thomas. Wynkoop managed the finances. Thomas retired in 1864 and Wynkoop and Hallenbeck, between themselves, resumed a co-partnership, Wynkoop & Hallenbeck. Wynkoop and Hallenbeck were members of the Typothetae of New York, a master printers union. Wynkoop was a 2nd great grand nephew of Benjamin Wynkoop (1673–1751), early American silversmith of New York City.
1873: Frederick William Beers (1839–1933), the cartographer who supervised the work of Atlas of Long Island, was one of several Beers family publishers who, after the Civil War, published state and county atlases. Frederick's father, James Botsford Beers (1811–1901), and uncle, Daniel Glover Beers (1841–1913), had their own publishing companies. Distinctive features of the Atlas of Long Island include notations of property owners, buildings, businesses, and statistical information.
1883: The Brooklyn Bridge opened May 24, 1883, spanning the East River between Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. It was the first bridge that connected Brooklyn to Manhattan – in a neighborhood that eventually became known as Two Bridges.
1909: The Manhattan Bridge opened December 31, 1909, spanning the East River between Brooklyn and Lower Manhattan. It is the second bridge that belongs to the neighborhood name, "Two Bridges".
