Hi folks
Just dipping a toe in the water to see what your reaction is, as part of searching for a relative Iris Sheldon b: 1925 at Long Eaton, Derbyshire that I believe maybe married in Loughborough in 1949 to a Nelson Varney, I have been scanning the above Electoral Roll which is now out of copyright. (The 50 year rule)
I have scanned the pages with a handheld scanner and I'm using OCR software to first put it into an Excel spreadsheet and then a SQL database so its fully searchable.
This will be completed by the end of February, would anyone be interested on here in wanting me to search for recent relatives and telling your where they were living during the years 1959-1960. There are some really interesting and unusual surnames that I have so far come across.
The only other info available is:
The Elector is a Service Voter.
The Elector is NOT entitled to vote in respect of that entry at Parliamentary Elections.
The Elector is NOT entitled to vote in respect of that entry at Elections of County Councillors.
The Elector is NOT entitled to vote in respect of that entry at Elections of Rural District Council.
The Elector will be entitled to vote only at Elections held after 1st October, 1959.
The Electors liability for service as Juror.
Mike
