Fremantle became a city in the centenary year 1929. These are lists of councillors since then, beginning with Ewers' list.

See below for councils by year, 1973-2015 (most years).

1929–70

John K. Ewers, 1971, The Western Gateway: A History of Fremantle, Fremantle City Council, with UWAP, rev. ed. [1st ed. 1948] Appendix 8: 217-218:

After 1970

List of councillors whose terms finished, or started, after 1970 — i.e. continuing from Ewers' list above, to 1983.

This is typed by me from a list in the Fremantle Library, with the odd correction. It is not complete, only going up to the early 1980s, and could contains errors.

Councillors by year

The following lists of councillors were typed by me from my photographs of photocopied separate sheets in a manila folder in the Fremantle Library. I haven't done a thorough job of carefully identifying each sheet, and also some years are missing. In many cases there are more than one datasets for a given year, in which case I have included both as one, with names separated by a / . ... But it seems there is no summary list like this held in the Council offices, and this might have to do for the time being, until someone else does a better job.

Having worked from this list in 2019 to make the separate lists for councillors by ward, it seems increasingly likely that I've made errors of various kinds - as well as the list having obvious gaping omissions. I can only repeat that I am not aware of anything better being available online, so, until it is and someone lets me know, I'll have to leave this shemozzle here. I apologise to all the former councillors in relation to whom I may have made mistakes.

The lists 1973-2007 below are as described above. From 2015 onwards they have been typed by me from current records, and I take the responsibility for their accuracy. I seem to have omitted 1991, for some reason.\
