Electoral rolls are the nearest thing Australians have to census records, and hence they are extremely important and useful for local, family and social historians.

The roll for Queensland in 1903 totals over 3,700 pages. Entries are arranged alphabetically by district and by division within the district. You will find the details of about 100,000 voters who resided in Queensland at this time, and who were qualified (and registered) to vote. Apart from the annual rolls (published variously in late 1902 and early 1903), the includes the additional rolls published in February, April, June, August, and October 1903.

Though women are listed on Queensland’s Commonwealth electoral roll from 1903, it was not until 1905 that they gained the right to vote in Queensland state elections.

The following information is included for many (but not all) entries:

• No.
• Christian name and surname
• Sex (M/F)
• Place of residence
• Occupation
• Situation of freehold or leasehold for which elector’s name is transferred
• Date when claim received by electoral registrar
• Electoral district and division
