How to Research Your Address

Electoral Registers
If you would like to know who else lived at your address, then the Electoral Roll for Birmingham is searchable between 1912 and 1965.

Click here, and then add your full address into the 'Address' box. The results will include the same address from other districts (e.g. there is also a Kingsley Road in Balsall Heath), but all entries for Kings Norton (or Northfield* in the early 1900s) are the right address.

You can also research addresses and names not part of the Tenants estate.


Birmingham Archive
There is also a large collection at Birmingham Archive about Bournville Tenants, a list of the collection can be found here.


Ancestry
Ancestry.co.uk may have more information, it is free to use at all Birmingham Libraries.



NOTES
*The Bournville Tenants estate was part of Northfield until the 1920s.
