''Researching Anglo-Indian Ancestry'' 2009 21pp. <br>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 background 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.<br>
