FFHS-NEWS More BMD records for British subjects overseas and on board ships

[News from the Federation of Family History Societies]

More BMD records

 

The National Archives has just announced that BMDregisters.co.uk
<http://www.bmdregisters.co.uk/>  have added to their website more than
100,000 records of births, baptisms, marriages, deaths and burials of
British subjects overseas and on board ships.  This information is from the
TNA’s RG33 series.

 

The records mostly date from the 19th and 20th centuries although some
records date from as far back as 1627; if your ancestors travelled the world
or married at sea during this period, you may find them there.

 

With records ranging from Methodists and Baptists to Presbyterians and
Quakers, this website is useful for tracing non-conformist ancestors.
