St. Augustine Voter Registration

This information is provided by the St. Augustine Genealogical Society for research purposes only. 

The voters lists are hand written in a series of books in the St. Augustine Historical Society by Ward number, there being five Wards.  No map showing the wards is available. The information was compiled by C. Mack Wills in May – June 2010.

On the listing the wards are designated in the District column. However, there were two books labeled Ward 2 and no book labeled Ward 5, other than a smaller book with names listed that seem to imply that it is of the 5th Ward. These “5th Ward” names are so identified with an * after their names. The names from the “2nd Ward" book were compared with the first 2nd Ward book and any names listed in the second but not the first were added to this list and designated by #.  Some of the names were difficult to read and are so designated by a ? after the name.  This list can be used as a partial source for the 1890 U.S. Census which was destroyed and not available.

Oath to be taken by each person before registering. “I do solemnly swear, or affirm that I will protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and the State of Florida, that I am twenty-one years of age and have been a resident of the State of Florida for twelve months, and of the County for six months, and I am qualified to vote under the Constitution and Laws of the State of Florida, and that my name, age, residence, occupation and description are correctly given as set opposite my name below.”
