Do you know your female ancestors name? Been told it is hard to find a female? Was she over 21 in 1893? Help is at hand!
1893 First Women Electors Index This set of seven fiche lists, alphabetically, all the women of NZ who enrolled to vote in 1893. It gives name, address, occupation, electorate, and land ownership (if any). The index is an excellent finding aid and can be a shortcut to finding a whole family. Used in conjunction with the 1893 full electoral roll you can identify a family very quickly.
Order from: St Johns Branch, NZSG, PO Box 74212, Market Road, Auckland
Cost: $15 including P&P
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Another New Zealand First
1881 Electoral Roll Index This set of fiche lists, alphabetically, all New Zealand men who were on the 1881 electoral roll.
It gives Name, address, qualification to vote and occupation and electorate.
The franchise qualifications were those males 21 and over who either owned property or had live in New Zealand for at least one year and in an electorate for at least six months before registering as a elector. Maori who owned property on individual titles were also eligible to register as electors in any European electorate where they were so qualified. Therefore 1881 was the first election held in New Zealand using Universal male suffrage.
It is an index only and will lead you to further research of land holdings etc.
This set of fiche is available from St Johns Branch NZSG, PO Box 74212, Market Road, Auckland.
Cost $20.00 postage and packing included.
If you decide to purchase both sets there is a special price of $30.00 posted for the 1881 Electoral Roll index set and the 1893 First Women Electors index set.
