Does anyone have access to these please. I have some details of addresses for Grandfather but want to check details of his landlady/cohabitee and any children if of sufficient age.

I had an address for someone in Lewisham, and the Lewisham library held the records.

I sent them an email, and someone at the library kindly looked it up and replied!

So I would suggest checking if the local library has them and giving them a call or an email.

Good luck

You need to contact the local library in the area and ask them which local studies library holds the ERs for that area. Unless you can get the to the British Library in London where I understand the hold copies.

No ERs for 1939 - 1944 and then two in 1945 May & Oct

Google the local library and give them a call or email

Remember ERs only hold names of individuals eligible to vote - no children, it doesn't give ages, relationship etc. Just names.
