ER's have only the info the title suggests.........names of people entitled to vote. No ages, no relationships, no juveniles.

The main libraray for the area usually have copies, unfortunately they are not indexed so you need an address, otherwise it means trawling through page by page.

There are some Electores Book avaliable but are held if any ,at a Local Record Office or Archives for the area, but these dont give relationship to anyone at an address,or ages,,,,,,,,none were taken during the war years, you could get lucky and find a local Library or Local Studies could have some,,,,but there is nothing on-line unless Kellys could help then these tended to be named prominent people,

Try a local archive or r/office for the area ,but will mean a personal manual search,,,,,,,,,

Are there Electoral Roll Archives available anywhere on line to search?It seems like a good alternative to Census Records that are not yet available. I would love to find info for my immediate ancestors in the 1920/30s. Any ideas anyone ?
