*'''The commercial website [[findmypast]] digitised the India Office Church records and they were released online on 29 January 2014'''. Note that some India Office Records will not be found in the findmypast database, (for technical or other reasons). Due to the fact that more recent records may contain details for individuals who are still living, the website findmypast host only a basic index for birth/baptism records within 100 years and marriage records under 84 years. <ref> [http://www.bl.uk/reshelp/findhelpregion/asia/india/britishinindia/index.html The British In India Collection] bl.uk </ref> When introduced in 2014, there were no images for births after 1914, or for marriages after 1929. The same date restrictions still apply, probably indicating that records were not filmed after these dates.
*Many of the indexes have been previously transcribed by FIBIS Volunteers and are available in the [httphttps://www.search.fibis.org/frontis/bin/index.php FIBIS Search database] under the heading Ecclesiastical Records.
*Enhanced indexes from the church records at the British Library were added in April 2010 to the LDS [[IGI|FamilySearch website]]. These are free to search and view but examination of the full record will give further information. There are some records which are '''not available on findmypast'''.
