Does sks know if there were Electorial rolls taken from the 1800's to 1941?

Are they accessible to anyone or are they online?

Looking for any Whittaker/Whittagers in the Strabane and Co. Donegal areas areas up to 1941.  And Spence in Co Donegal (Milltown area in the 1800's)

If any one can help please?

Thanks

Hi Theresa
Iwas able to get a copy of my great grandfather's marriage certificate. He was married in Strabane. I can give you a contact number if you are interested.

Hi Theresa
I was in several C of I graveyards today, Donaghmore, Stranorlar and Convoy. I'm sure I saw Whittaker's in either Donaghmore or Stranorlar. I would be willing to go and have another look for you if you want to give me some details. Can't guarantee anything but will give it a go.
