=====Online records=====
Genealogy websites such as [[findmypast]] and Ancestry, mentioned in the following sections, are pay websites. Ancestry requires at least a Premium level of subscription for access to military records, and requires a higher level subscription for access to some images. Depending where you live you may be able to access such websites for free at a library near you. See [[Miscellaneous tips#Access some subscription websites with a Library Card|Miscellaneous tips - Access some subscription websites with a Library Card]].
Where a record series appears on both findmypast, and Ancestry there may be differences in transcriptions of names which will affect the Search results. If you cannot initially find a record, it is suggested you try searching on both websites.
