I was born at a relative's home, but would like to find out her name to help with my family tree. I have her full address so just need to look at the 1964 electoral roll that covers Teignmouth. I do know the area slightly, but does anyone know which library would cover this area so that I can ring them up? Many thanks.

Thank you both very much, this means a lot to me to be able to find out more about my birth. Helen, I couldn't believe it when I saw a Plymouth address, as although I was born in Teignmouth, my adoptive parents brought me up in Plymouth - I know Mannamead well! In fact I have a good friend living there, so maybe she'll do me a favour and pop in! Many thanks again, I'm very grateful
