Researching ancestors in British India by Valmay Young.
Some three million Britons lived and served in India during Britain's presence there. From 1600 to 1947, the East India Company, and the British controlled Government of India, won that country with their armies and governed it with a Civil Service. Britons from all social classes were recruited to run every aspect of social, commercial, political, economic and military life. Many records of these people survive, and this talk will explain these records and where to find them.
