Description
Surname index from the Leicester electoral registers 1931.
This dataset contains a surname index of the Leicester Electoral Registers for the year 1931. Numbers amounted to 163,246 in the 16 Wards that covered the three Divisions of Leicester City at that time. Several people voted in a City Ward but lived in the County depending on where the boundaries were situated. Some voters have a ‘Business qualification’ so their abode is given. ‘Absent Voters’ away from home are also indicated.
Of course, it includes the women voters who became eligible to vote under the terms of the Representation of the People Act, 1928. Both men and women aged over 21 qualified as voters in Parliamentary Elections.
This index includes the street/road name, ward name/number and Division (not the house name or number which would have involved typing each individual house address).
The original Electoral Registers are the property of Leicester City Council and microfiche copies can be viewed at the Leicestershire, Leicester & Rutland Records Office. Details might also be viewed on subscription websites.
