You need to have an address to check an electoral roll. You could try a street directory. Sam x

But street directories and electoral rolls will only have adult householders or adults eligible to vote. I recently went to the Westminster archives and found several of my husband's rellies in the 1930s-50s telephone directory of London - just one volume for each year! nell
