Absent Voters list for Ashford, Kent WW1
« on: Wednesday 20 September 06 09:41 BST (UK) »
Can anybody access the WW1 absent voters list for Ashford, Kent?

I can get access (when I can get there) but could get on with something that rather concerns me at present if I could get some information sooner - casualty number 13 on the following page - a lot of the research is wrong

http://www.cwgc.co.uk/17%20men.htm

and some of this is wrong http://www.cwgc.org/search/casualty_details.aspx?casualty=75197430

Casaguildi,
I might be able to help you re the Ashford AVL a little.
Re the CWGC site, to get anything altered on there you need to present a case to the Commission which requires concrete proof that there is an error. This process can take a long long time.
