I have been researching my family history for a little while now.I am stuck on one or two so rather than giving up have been "padding" out the details about the ancestors I have found. Then I was asked about a more recent relative, (from the 1930's) and realised I dont have a clue about how to trace those. Are electoral rolls available or is there another method?

BMDs are on Ancestry and Findmypast for then.

Thanks for that, never needed to look up anyone that "recent" before so never even thought of looking. I just assumed that, like the census, information was only available for prior 1900. When I think aboutit though , people can get duplicate cert's so that should have been obvious really !
