Electoral registers have been compiled for Surrey every year since 1832 excepting the war years 1916-1917 and 1940-1944.
Surrey History Centre holds electoral registers for the county of Surrey from 1832. However, there are some anomalies since the changing boundaries of the county and the establishment of separate boroughs have made tracing some registers more complicated, and in some cases (eg Croydon) we only hold registers for certain periods. If in any doubt, please contact Surrey History Centre before you visit to make sure that we hold the registers you are looking for.
Early electoral register at Surrey History Centre for 1832-1889 include the whole of the ancient administrative county of Surrey, and are available on microfilm or microfiche. The Land Tax Assessment books for all the parishes in the ancient county of Surrey for the years 1780-1832 are also available on microfilm.
