There are India Office records in the British Library, reference [http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/records.aspx?cat=059-iorlmil_8-1&cid=1-2#1-2 '''IOR L/MIL/14'''].

A complete alphabetical index to the opened files is now available on open access in the Asian & African Studies Reading Room at the [[British Library]] or it can be searched by name on [http://searcharchives.bl.uk/primo_library/libweb/action/search.do?vid=IAMS_VU2 British Library archive search]
