I have just tried to search Qld electoral rolls on ancestry and could not get anything in Qld, only nsw prior to 1902 So thought I was doing something wrong so did a search for someone for whom I had searched before and found several entries, but, nothing Has anyone else had a problem ? Greg
Hi Greg, I have just had a look and it seems they have set up a more complicated way to search, now you have to browse the collection by State, Year, District, Subdistrict and 1st letter of last name. It was much easier before.. Why do they have to change.

How do you know which district to search ? How do you know which sub district to search ? With the way electoral districts change it will take for ever to find people. A month ago I wasn't sure it was worth renewing my subscription; I sure as hell know now it is not worth it.
