Try Rachael on the Record Office message board first - she has the 2003 electors roll for UK and very kindly offers to do lookups.

The website Pen suggested has been down recently for upgrading. If it's still not available, then try www(.)192(.)com and although they charge, you can follow instructions to get a few free starter credits, which should be enough for what you need. Good luck!

Hi All, Have just discovered I have a Half sister Doreen Hennell born 1937 in Camberwell, London. I only discovered My dad had been married before when I found My Mum and Dads Marriage certificate after they died, and it said divorced Husband of Doris Louise/Louisa Wise. They were both married at age 19. A new rellie went to Family Records Centre for me and discovered her and the only other entry for her is a Marriage(presume correct) to a Emrys Thomas in Ystradgynlais, Wales in 1959. How do I find her and hopefully she would like to talk. I presume my Dad was paying for her upkeep thinking back in the past and also lots of Wales talk. Didn't associate it before but now makes sense. Many thanks, Sandra
