:Some later records for baptisms and marriages are not available with full details for privacy reasons on [[findmypast]]. For those unable to visit the British Library, alternative records are available for later births and marriages on FamilySearch digitised microfilms, and previously issued microfilms, see [[FamilySearch]] and [[FamilySearch Centres]]. If FamilySearch Centres are not geographically convenient, copies of records may be requested from the British Library for a fee.
*Search the archives of the Rootsweb India List. You may find that someone else has already researched the family tree you are interested in. Read how to do this, and more about the now discontinued India List, in the Fibiwiki link [[Mailing lists]].
*Consider joining your local genealogy society as most large societies, in addition to other services, provide members free online access in their libraries to commercial sites such as findmypast Findmypast and /or Ancestry, and possibly many other additional genealogy websites which would otherwise require payment. This is especially relevant as the church records at the British Library are now digitised and available through findmypastFindmypast. Some Borough/Local Government and/or County/State and/or National libraries may also offer free access to websites such as findmypast Findmypast and Ancestry, see [[Miscellaneous tips]]. Some of the larger genealogy societies have become FamilySearch Affiliate Libraries where it is possible to view many, but not all, 'restricted' FamilySearch digitised records which are not available on home computers. For more details see [[FamilySearch Centres]]. Findmypast and Ancestry (and additional sites) are also available at [[FamilySearch Centres]].
