UK Electoral Roll help

Hi,
Has anyone used the UK electoral Roll data?
I'm looking to find info on the UK electoral rolls. Does anyone know the best place to get this info. I know it will cost me but where is the best priced site for the best value.
I've found a potentual relative with th efree lookup part of 192.com, but need the unseen info. Any suggestions for help.

But not sure what is the best option to get this unseen info. 192 .com is expensive I feel as I only want such a small amount of data. It's for Yorkshire and the name is Parry. It's a lost uncle for my grandchildren. Any further suggestions would be wonderful.

Comment by Carolyn Ramsbottom on August 14, 2009 at 11:01am: what timescale are you looking at? Electoral rolls only given names of people living at an address and for several years now people have been able to opt out of having their name on the public electoral roll. There are in effect 2 rolls now - one the public can see (this is the one you can opt out of) and one that the electoral officers and political parties use in elections.
