Thumbs up British India Office records - findmypast

Just noticed this:
British India Office Births and Baptisms 1712-1965
British India Office Marriages 1713-1969
British India Office Deaths and Burials 1709-1965
British India Office Wills and Probate 1774-1948
British India Office Army and Navy Pensions
East India Company and Civil Service Pensions
British India Office Assistant Surgeons

Pinch me, someone!

I think I shall be taking a break from those PCC wills on ancestry and getting a sub to FMP quick!

Can someone please confirm that these records are available if you have a "Britain Full Subscription" before I take the plunge?

I have a full sub, plus I have 38 credits & I've managed to view a transcription & the image. Just checked & I still have 38 credits left

Hope that helps Kiterunner

Just want to warn people who are using pay-as-you-go credits that the "transcription" is just an index entry with very little information and costs the same number of credits as viewing the image would.

Because these databases use FMP's new search facility, you can specify the spouse's name on a marriage search, and you can kind of search for parents' names on baptisms but because you have to use the "keyword" field for those, it doesn't allow for variants.

How sad and frustrating for you, Toni. Maybe you'll find a clue someday, just not where you were expecting it.
