Portsmouth Records ....?
« on: Monday 24 August 15 17:16 BST (UK) »
Connected to ~ but, far more focused, now ~ a Thread I have going on else where;

Is there any way, on line, to access either the obituaries in The News. Or the voters lists ~ either of them - though voters lists should crack it faster - for the period 1990 to 1995, please?

I'd be more than happy to PPV. Googled till my eyes bled. I've just been away from this game for too long, it seems. Lost the old scent  :(

Thanks.

I'm happy to look something up in the Local History section of the library for you. They hold copies of the "The News" and Electoral Register (but I don't know the dates held), but to run through 5 years of of daily papers would be an Herculean task. If you can narrow it down a bit send me a PM.
