Electoral rolls are arranged by electoral district and subdistrict. They are generally not indexed; therefore it is necessary to know the district where your ancestor lived. Districts boundaries or names could change from year to year, so determining the correct district can be difficult. Directories of an area may show an address that will help you determine the district to search. For information on directories, see [[Australia Directories]]. No comprehensive guide to districts exists for any state, although some for specific years do exist. | Electoral rolls are arranged by electoral district and subdistrict.
