Electoral register Lookup for Lambeth district please.
« on: Monday 18 April 16 20:25 BST (UK) »
Hi everyone,

Could I please ask a big favour and ask if some kind sole would look up the following person on the electoral registers.

I am looking for a J P P J Shaw (born around 1945 in Ireland). He was living in the Stockwell area of Lambeth in the 1970's and 80's.

He was married to a May Shaw. They had 2 children that would have been eligible to vote in the 90's.

1. Removed
2. Removed

I believe the wife May died in 1990.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as a friend is trying to trace her father.


Thanks,

Linda

Where do you think the wife died, if he was only 45 he could have married again?

Hi Linda

Please remember that Rootschat is for finding our ancestors not reconnecting with missing family and friends.

We have a clearly defined 'no living people' policy here, see 4th paragragh from the bottom

http://www.rootschat.com/help/posting_guide.php

Names have been removed.

Historic Electoral registers that aren't online are compiled by address not name, and since 2002 people have been able to opt out of the registers that can be found online.

There is a possible remarriage in 1998

https://familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVF7-K4T2

a copy of this cert from the GRO should show whether this is the man you seek or his son who has the same name.

If the cert proves to be the correct one, his wife has a really unusual name and can be found via an internet search engine.

Hi Dawn,

Sorry about the post. I didn't realise you had this policy, it's been ages since I visited the site.

I did know about this marriage, but I assumed it was the son's marriage.
This could put a new twist on it if it is the father that remarried.

Thanks,
