Has anyone used older (1870's - 1920) voter registration records for NYC with success? I understand that the Municipal Archives has these records and that a year (preferably presidential election year) and an Assembly District/Election District must be provided. I have the AD/ED for several of my ancestors from my research for the 1890 police census. Does anyone know if these are likely to have changed much if I researched 1888 or 1892? Any advice about this area of research would be appreciated. Melanie Egan Orlando FL

Hi Melanie, Where are you finding the records? Only at the Archives? Does anyone know if they are on-line or searchable through LDS? Thanks.
