WW1 medals
« on: Thursday 29 May 08 08:09 BST (UK) »
Could somone tell me if the British Army WWI Medal Rolls Index Cards, 1914-1920 on Ancestry are the same as the WW1 Campaign Medals that are on documentsonline?

Yes, apart from the fact they are colour scans of the original Medal index cards and they show back and front of the cards ( unlike those on documents online) , although you should be aware that not all the card have been up-loaded yet

Many thanks for your reply.

Is it Ancestry's Medal Card Index that is incomplete?

Yes is Ancestry's,  that is incomplete, but they are  at least 2/3s of the way through uploading annd the images are far superior to those on the National Archive site
