Electoral Rolls

If in London they are avaiable on Ancestry

But I think most local library/archives will hold them

Researching:

BUT to search old electoral registers at any library you really need the address otherwise a very long job

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it. PLEASE DO NOT: ask me for help with lookups as they should be placed on the boards to get the best possible result. PLEASE DO NOT: open your tree just because I have posted information on your thread as I will not be related. THANK YOU. Researching Carter, Cass and Walker in England. Researching Caven, McKill, Sutherland and Will in Scotland.

Or wait until 2022, and hope that the 1921 census will be released..........there is talk of it not being done.

Some other areas have online electoral register info which is searchable by name - Birmingham does for example. Might be worth checking for the area you are looking at..

if they were trades people.

Barrow in Furness has digitised electoral rolls, and I think other places do as well.
