Title: Where do I post Look Ups for British India (British Army in India circa 1920)
Post by: nicdigby on Thursday 25 June 20 22:24 BST (UK)
Have a lot of births marriages etc to look up for part of the family who moved to India with the British Army after WW1. I need help as it's proving really hard!

1) Where do I post on this forum for Look ups?
2) Where can I look for myself? Am on Ancestry and FindMyPast but no luck so far, only one birth record.

Findmypast have several record sets for British India which you might find useful.

Yes I have found one baptism record only on there under the British India records, but now struggling to know how to go any further.
