Is there any way of looking at old electoral rolls and checking when someone was at a specific address. I have a picture taken c.1910 that has a message written on the back of it from the photographer to my grandmother giving an address in London. Would I be able to check this address for a period of time to see when she was living there and with whom - or am I going to have to wait for the 1911 census!!!!! Trudy |

You would need to visit the relevant library to search them, or write to the library and ask if someone would do that. Joy |

Electoral rolls are sometimes at local history centres. I was able to trace my gt grandfather from the 1890s-1932 from them and as a bonus found that his brother-in-law lived next door, with his first wife and family, then with 2nd wife (gt grandfather's sister). nell |

Hi Nell - are you meaning LDS centres and do they only hold the ones for local areas or could they order others in for you? Trudy |
