From 1917 onwards a Directory of Gerrards Cross was produced every few years. These directories contain a wealth of information about the houses, residents, shops and other businesses. Local resident, AP Whitley, has scanned volumes of the 'Gerrards Cross and Chalfont St Peter Directories" from 1917 until 1940 and has a produced a PDF version of them. He has also analysed the advertisements of local traders throughout this period and indexed photographs and drawings.
