Electoral Registers - Boughton and Dunkirk
« on: Monday 31 August 09 20:46 UTC (UK) »
Prior to a visit to Kent, I should be very grateful if anyone can tell me exactly where the following can be located and viewed:-

Electoral registers for Dunkirk near Faversham for the periods 1930-1940 and 1946 - 1950

Electoral registers for Boughton under Blean and Boughton Street near Faversham for the period 1935-1940.

Thanks in hope!

The British Library has copies of most of them I think.

Thanks spongebob for the information, that is a handy document to have a link to.

I was rather hoping to find them located somewhere in Kent in a record office or library as I shall be there for just a few days soon.

The Kent Archives Service also has copies of the old registers.

I think they are probably at the Centre for Kentish Studies, drop them an email to check maybe.

Got in touch with The Centre for Kentish Studies and they have the registers I require.

Thanks again.
