Always worth checking............

Thank you all for your replies. I was trying to find out where John and June would have been living in the Yeovil area around around 1959 to 1963 is there any sites apart from this one and ancestry I could look at for help. Many thanks

John would have been eligible to vote at 21 so should have been on the Electoral Roll from 1961/2.

If you haven’t managed to find them on the ER it is unlikely to be found elsewhere but it is probably worth having a. Look at local papers

Ask South Somerset District Council about 1960s Electoral Rolls:

He had several children in that time frame. Perhaps one of the birth certificates would offer more info?

Seems like you already know this. Is this how you found the name Glover?

Rose

Hi Rose

I know he had children but no the name Glover was a family they lived with sometime in that period but no one can remember their first names.

Did nothing come of the Electoral Roll search?

So you are/were not looking for Mr Chainey………….

Im looking into how I get the electro rolls

At the relevant local main library, where they are searchable by address, I believe

If you can’t find it online then you may find that the local archives /local studies will do the search for a fee.
