Transcriber Notes:
A hard copy of the Ennis 1933 Voting Register is available in the Local
Studies Centre, Clare County Library. This transcription is from the 1933
Voter Register for Ennis Urban Districts No. 1 through No. 4 and the Ennis
Rural District for Dáil Elections and Local Government Elections.
The 1918 General Election took place in December and was the first election
in which women over the age of 30 with a property qualification and men
over the age of 21 could vote. Previously, all women and most working-class
men had been excluded from voting. In 1922, the Constitution of the Irish
Free State granted the vote and full citizenship to all men and women
over 21.
General Elections were held in the years 1922, 1923, 1927, 1933, 1937
and 1938. The intervention of WWII brought about the suspension of elections.
Archival support was provided by the staff of Clare County Library’s
Local Studies Centre - Peter Beirne and Brian Doyle. In keeping with the
Clare Roots policy, CRS have donated the transcribed material for publication
on the Clare Library website.
