At an exhibition today about the 200th anniversary of the sailing of a ship from Aberaeron to the United States, a timeline of local history stated that in 1892 the Aberaeron Rural and Urban District Councils were established, therefore taking this as a statement of fact for the whole of the current county of Ceredigion, I will start from 1892 in my investigations and report back every so often when I have information.

I am pleased to report that today I was able to source the Cambrian News for 1894 and found not only a list of those councillors elected for the first RDC council but the number of votes cast for those candidates in full. Because the information is in a very old newspaper photographs are the only way of recording the data however as a registered carer I cannot be too long away from home, therefore I will try and use the Welsh newspaper archive to see if that can help.
Additional: YES, the information is indeed on the Archive, therefore I will transcribe throughout the Christmas period.
