Forces War Records Genealogy Website Hosts British Military Records
Posted by Diane
Did your British ancestor serve in the military? You might be interested in this genealogy website: A British company called Forces Reunited, founded in 2001 by
a military veteran, has launched a military records subscription site
called Forces War
Records.
The site holds more than 4 million British military records from
World Wars I and II, the Boer War (1899-1902), the Crimean War
(1853-1856), African wars (1815-1853) and Napoleonic wars
(1799-1815). Search results are cross-matched to information on more
than 4,000 regiments, bases and ships of the British Armed Forces
dating to before 1350.
You can set up a free account, but you'll need a subscription to see
full details of records matching your search. Subscription prices
range from 25.95 pounds (about $41) for three months to 85.95 pounds
(about $135) for 12 months.
The site has a free search for Prisoners of War (1939-1945), an
index giving you the name of the servicemember, camp, regiment
linked to information about the regiment) and branch of service,
plus a link to search results in the site's other records for that
name.
You also can search a free index to information from Medieval
military records, with data from a free site called the
Soldier in Later Medieval England.
