Searching for Australian cousins just got a little easier as Ancestry has added nearly 62, 000 new images, almost 31 million new index records, to its electoral roll collection. There are now more than 1.4 million images and over 100 million records in total.
This database, running to 1980, and including earlier years in which censuses would be available elsewhere, currently includes electoral rolls for the following states and years. Those marked by asterisk have been transcribed. For all other years, the records were extracted using a new OCR indexing method - likely the same one that was used on the Canadian electoral rolls. They were not transcribed.
