Queensland Electoral Rolls from 1903, 1913, and 1922 make up the major collection this week at WorldVitalRecords.com. The database contains more than 1.5 million names and is a great starting place for any individual researching families living in Queensland. These records are provided by the Queensland Family History Society that was established in Brisbane in 1979. The information contained in each search result includes the name, place of residence, occupation, sex, roll number, polling place, and division. The 1903 and 1913 rolls index all electors registered in Queensland for which records survive. The 1922 roll follows the major shifts caused by World War I. It was compiled after a redistribution of electorates. Enrolment was compulsory, though voting was not, so Queenslanders from all walks of life are present in the index. An electoral roll contains a list of the names of all people registered to vote in a particular area. The earliest electoral rolls in Australia begin in the 1840s, for the states of New South Wales and Victoria. There are three types of electoral rolls: Municipal Rolls (1888-1949), State Rolls (1842-1929) and Commonwealth Rolls (1903 to date). The electoral rolls included in this database are commonwealth rolls. QFHS maintains a comprehensive library of reference material, not only for Queensland but also other Australian States and several overseas countries. The first three databases are now available and are free for 10 days. A further four databases will be loaded soon and others will soon follow. Try your luck today at: WorldVitalRecords.com
