Title: Bradford query
Post by: jww on Saturday 18 August 12 19:09 BST (UK)

Hi
I am trying to find out who lived at 8 wellands terrace between 1925 and 1945 it could be either the Holliday family or the Walton  Family or both during that period. Can anyone help me by accessing the electoral registers for me please.
I am an expat living across the border in Lancashire now and find it hard to get to Bradford
thanks
Janet

Hi Janet

The archives floor at Bradford Central Library was closed to the general public some time ago because of structural problems, and I don't know if it is still closed, however the staff are able to access the records, they are very helpful so give them a call.

I think the registers were suspended during the war years.
