About Fibiwiki

Fibiwiki is a wiki where you can share information useful to people researching ancestors in India. It not only contains guides to help you research, but also lists sources, and general background information about the culture, society and history of India during the period from 1600 to 1947. If you have information to contribute, or would like to help edit fibiwiki, please contact the Webmaster. If you don't have information to contribute enjoy reading the articles on this website.
