This CD indexes the details from the Commonwealth
Electoral Rolls for electors registered in Queensland in 1934. The entries for
the almost 570,000 electors cover name, title, sex, place of living, occupation,
roll number, subdivision and division. The index allows direct searching on
name, year and the other details with QFHSdatasearch.
The material on this CD is a unique source of public information on individuals.
It covers all electors recorded in the rolls held in the National Archives of
Australia (i.e. all registered electors for Queensland except for approximately
280 people whose portions of the rolls are not available or unreadable) and
lists all the information recorded in the rolls. Enrolment and voting were
compulsory, so Queenslanders from all walks of life are included. The 1934 roll
was compiled after a redistribution of electorates and the CD includes maps
showing the new Division boundaries. Combining the range of information with the
search specifications and sorting facilities in QFHSdatasearch can be
particularly useful for locating family groups, for example by specifying a
surname and sorting on place of living within subdivision. The CD is the fourth
in a series being produced by QFHS for the Commonwealth Electoral Rolls
(Queensland). The earlier ones (1903, approx. 230,000 electors, 1913, 362,000
electors; and 1922, 419,000 electors) have been extremely popular with family
historians and other historical researchers, illustrating just how valuable
these sources are.
QFHSdatasearch is a generic interface designed for searching genealogy databases
and developed by the Queensland Family History Society Inc. This version
features field oriented and keyword searches, recognition of diacritics, Boolean
selection, sorting, wildcard searches and links between search results and
images held in pdf files of the maps.
