    3. I don't think it went by ages, but by property ownership, though I think the minimum age for those qualified in other respects was 21.

    3. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/pathways/citizenship/struggle_democracy/g etting_vote.htm That will tell you everything. I don't think it was a question of age, more of standing in the community.

    2. For centuries, the term was "Of full age" and was generally considered 21 years. Now, you could marry at age 12 for girls and 14 for boys until the Marriage Act of 1929. The Act set it at 16 for both until 1969. It then became 18 for both. ----- Original Message ----- From: "derbysgen" <[email protected]> To: "derbysgen" <[email protected]> Cc: "ANNE" <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, May 12, 2017 8:07:40 AM Subject: [DBY] Voting age in 1865 Can anyone tell me what the voting age was in 1865.
