A massive new website incorporating all aspects of military genealogy goes live this month.





Military-Genealogy.org.uk includes the largest collection of searchable British Armed Forces data for family historians on the web, with over one million service personnel and details of 4,000 units. Some of the records date back to pre-1630.

You can search records of those who were killed in action, or of participants who have since passed away, as well as histories of almost every regiments, service, ship, airbase and unit in the British Armed Forces. 

Managing Director, Dominic Hayhoe, from Forces Reunited who are setting up the website, says, "Most of us will have had a relative who fought in either World War I or World War II and Military-Genealogy.org.uk gives people the opportunity to find out more about their military ancestors and their military careers."
