The only way to find info after 1901 is either by trawling the BMD records, or looking for those eligible to vote on the Electoral Roll. For the latter, you would have to know an approximate (at least) address. Reg

hiya, excuse me for appearing dense, but what info are you after exactly??? anything after 1901 you will need to use electoral rolls, and even then, you had to be over 30 to be on them, you could try searching ancestry's complete index, which is free, for possible BDM's anything before 1901, you will need to buy the marriage cert, to get bride/groom fathers names julie
