====Findmypast/Kabristan Archives====
Findmypast contains the database [https://search.findmypast.co.uk/search-world-Records/british-in-ceylon-parish-records?SearchedRecordsetRegion=World&sourceID=13&utm_source=affiliate&utm_content=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.wiki.fibis.org&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=%20fmp_uk&awc=2114 "British In Ceylon Parish Records"] located in Life Events (BMDs)/Parish Registers, consisting of records "collected and transcribed by the Kabristan Archives". Mainly these appear to be index records only. Currently (20202023/0504/1615) within these records there are five sub databases: Colombo Burials;
Colombo General Cemetery Anglican Burial Register 1909-1919;
Colombo Kanatte Cemetery War Dead; Miscellaneous Births Marriages Burials; St Pauls Baptisms 1877-1901 [probably (from the Kabristan website this is St Paul's Kandy]). The details provided varies - The last category, St Paul's is quite detailed but some of the other categories provide dates only.
See the Kabristan Archives, [[Ceylon#External links|External links]], below. Search on the Kabristan Archives website for free, for baptismal, marriage and burial records, and pay to obtain full details. If you want more details for a record you have found on Findmypast, it is '''possible''' that you may be able to obtain more details, by either purchasing a Kabristan Archives publication, or with a payment for a specific record.
