More Dublin City Electoral Lists launched online

Dublin City Libraries have digitised another tranche of Dublin City's early-20th-century electoral lists. This time, it's the turn of 1911, 1912 and 1915, and they comprise just under 140,000 entries.

The line up of electoral lists now spans 1908 to 1912, plus 1915, making a collection total of more than 280,000 fully searchable records. The database can be searched and images viewed, free of charge, at DublinHeritage.ie

Dublin City Libraries' project is on-going, and will eventually bring all of the City's Council Electoral Lists from 1898 to 1916 online. They're certainly making great progress; it was only a couple of months ago that the last two lists was released (see blogpost)
