As far as I know, to search an electoral roll, you need the address as they are listed in street order, not surname. Depending on where they lived, if the area is not that big you could trawl throutgh the whole village/town. Sam x

Electoral rolls are arranged by ward, and then alphabetically by street. It would be a bit like trying to find a phone number in the phonebook without a name. nell
