Find Ancestors

would someone please be able to look up hannah marie smith 71 marraway street birmingham if possible(i do realise women didnt get the vote until 1928 but i thought there were exceptions) or tell me where i can find it for myself
thank you zena

Women over 30 got the vote in 1919, over 21 in 1929.

Normally you have to search electoral registers in person, but you might like to check out this site- I think you need credits but I understand it's not very expensive:

www.midlandshistoricaldata.org


B'ham electoral registers are at the Central Library. You can request a lookup but they will charge.

sorry jan i had to go out and someone answererd for me but if you want to know any thing else ill keep my eye on this thread many thanks again for pointing me in this direction zena x

No problem Zena, you aren't expected to stay at your computer 24/7! Or maybe you should?!
I must check out that site for myself - although I live in Birmingham it can be surprisingly difficult to spare the time to go searchng in person.
