Even though some of these records may now be available through the internet, this book is still of use to researchers based in, or able to visit, the United Kingdom.
* ''Researching Anglo-Indian ancestry''. Weybridge: FIBIS, 2009 (FIBIS fact files; 1)
Essential for any family historian with blended ethnicity. The booklet contains two expanded and updated articles previously published in the FIBIS ''Journal'': ''The children of John Company : the Anglo-Indians'' by Geraldine Charles, and ''A Luso-Indian voyage'' by Cliff Pereira. These two authorities provide invaluable information: definitions of the various terms used for those of mixed race in the Indian sub-continent, a brief backgound history of these communities, reading lists, and, by using their own families as a basis, a demonstration of how to effectively research Anglo-Indian ancestors.
