Electoral rolls began in NSW in 1843 with a considerable property entitlement, which was reduced in 1851 and again in 1856. A residential entitlement was introduced in 1858. In 1893 these entitlements were abolished, which meant that practically all men could vote.

Women were granted voting rights in 1902, the year in which Commonwealth voting was introduced following Federation. Non-British subjects were not allowed to vote until the 1940s and aborigines until 1949.

Electoral rolls and slowly being digitised by third-party suppliers. A digital image of the page in the electoral roll book will be supplied if it is available, or a photocopy if it is not.
