Greece has a long tradition of maintaining electoral rolls, particularly through the Dimotologion (municipal register) and the Mitroon Arrenon (male register). The Mitroon Arrenon records male citizens from age 18 and are used for civic and military purposes, including elections. These registers include names, birth details, father's name, and municipality—crucial information for identifying family lines. While women’s electoral participation began in the mid-20th century, municipal rolls increasingly include broader population data. Many of these documents are held at local municipal offices or regional archives, and some have been digitized. For genealogists tracing Greek ancestry, electoral and municipal registers are fundamental for linking generations to specific villages and towns.
