Poll Books for “Hollesley”
« on: Sunday 24 March 13 16:40 GMT (UK) »

 :) Hi all... I was wondering if some kind person could help me please...I’m afraid I don’t know anything about Poll books...Are there any for Hollesley near Woodbridge Suffolk, If so, do these poll books cover the dates; 1918 to 1922.. If they do, would it be possible please for someone that was going to the Suffolk records office to have a look at these dates for whoever was living in; New cottages Hollesley near Woodbridge I’m afraid I have no other info... But would be most grateful for any info on this address if it can be found... Many Many Thanks in advance... :)

Going by the date of the 'new cottages', I wonder if they were local authority housing?
