    3. Hello List Further to my email below, unfortunately, the FamilySearch website has recently advised online viewing is restricted to members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. These images may also be viewed at a FamilySearch Centre at no cost. I was unaware when I made the original post that these restrictions applied, so I apologise for raising expectations. Cheers Maureen From: "Maureen Evers" < [email protected]> Subject: [INDIA] FamilySearch website now has British Army WW1 Service and Pension records Date: Wed, 3 Apr 2013 15:37:57 +1100 Hello List Service and pension records from World War 1 from the National Archives, Kew have been available on the pay site Ancestry.com. for a while. These are British Army WWI Service Records 1914-1920 also called WO 363 records and known as the 'Burnt Documents, and British Army WWI Pension Records 1914-1920 also called WO 364 records. These records have recently become available on the free website FamilySearch as images. https://familysearch.org/search/collection/2125045 They are explained in this FamilySearch Research Wiki https://familysearch.org/learn/wiki/en/United_Kingdom,_World_War_I_Service_R ecords_(FamilySearch_Historical_Records or http://tinyurl.com/bnydrgs Although the names on the images have not been transcribed, it appears the images are grouped alphabetically, so these records are an alternative if you do not have access to Ancestry Cheers Maureen
