Waltham Annual Listings Online!

The Library’s latest addition to the Internet Archive is now online. The city’s annual lists of voters, or Annual Listings, are available now from 1867 through 1973; more recent ones will follow later. Since these are arranged by ward and precinct they are often consulted in tandem with the city directories. Early editions of the listings did not have street indices, like the directories did. The listings give important bits of information such as age, previous residence and political party affiliation. For the link to the listings on Internet Archive go to https://archive.org/details/walthampubliclibrary. You can also discover a lot of our other local collection, such as Waltham High School Yearbooks and City Directories. Don’t forget to also visit our page on the Digital Commonwealth to view our map collection. Thank-you to the Boston Public Library Digital Services Team for their amazing help with this project.
