For the year 2000 - 2011 data was copied from the official Bristol Council site where a full listing of Mayors and Lord Mayors was presented. From 2011 the information was maintained as a downloadable .PDF file on the council website (note the source for that historical listing is Rickarts Kalendar begun in 1479) however this seems to have disappeared and up-to-date records are available on Wikipedia. More information is also given about local politics and the history and duties of Mayors on the website: Bristol City Council - Lord Mayor's page
