India Office Records now published on findmypast website

Families in British India Society (FIBIS) congratulates the British Library and findmypast and welcomes the announcement today of the publication on-line of over 2.5 million of the India Office Records. This will change and greatly enhance the nature of genealogical research for British India for the future. Under the terms of Partnership Agreement between findmypast and FIBIS, all the records will include a link to the FIBIS website so that those people who may have difficulty in understanding records relating to India (Place names, Unfamiliar Special Terminology, Abbreviations, etc.) will be directed to the FIBIS website where they can both gain an understanding of them and learn of the background to the lives of ancestors who lived there.
