Cosgrove Electoral Rolls 1906 - 1907

The Electoral system in England was administered by Parish units, developed through the years and transferring power from the Church to elected secular officers and Members of Parliament. Old Stratford was included in the parish of Cosgrove from Watling Street, eastwards, to Cosgrove village. People living on the west side of Watling Street were included in the parish of Passenham.

Records below show the whole of the parish of Cosgrove and include those Old Stratford people who lived on the east side of Watling Street. Also recorded are people entitled to vote because they owned property or land in the parish of Cosgrove, but they themselves lived elsewhere. It is possible that people failed to register for the electoral roll during some years, and qualified under more than one category in others - thus appearing twice. It is not clear whether they voted more than once!

During these years - In 1886 all male householders were included. By 1889 this list also included some women if they were in business, voting in Division III in the County elections but not yet in Parliament.
It was not until 1919 that women appeared on the electoral rolls in their own right.
Also at this time electoral rolls show "successive" entries where householders, usually tenants had moved within the year from one property to another. Lodgers became entitled to vote under some circumstances.
