The [http://www.sog.org.uk/index.shtml Society of Genealogists] (SOG) in London has information largely relating to family history in England, including its publication, the ''Genealogists' Magazine''. However, the Society also contains an impressive selection of material in its libraries relating to British India.

These include:

*A large collection of [[FamilySearch]] microfilms, previously to be found in the London Family History Centre (part of FamilySearch), were transferred to the Society of Genealogists' collection, available from August 2017, and are believed to include some microfilms of original church registers in India. <ref>[http://www.sog.org.uk/news/article/sog-refurbishment-and-microfilm-update SOG update 7 July 2017]</ref>

*The Upper Library also houses a great many books, directories and lists relating to British India. Particularly useful is the open access to the volumes of ''Bengal Past and Present'' (although, regrettably, these do not appear to be a complete run).

*Boxes of Anglo Indian research correspondence relating to the period directly after independence from persons born in India, seeking to prove their nationality under the 1948 British Nationality Act. For relevant family names see [http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=FIBIS_Journals Fibis journals no 2, 3 & 4]. Note however, a name index attached to the SoG papers supersedes that published by FIBIS. <ref>page 35 ''Ancestors Magazine 57''</ref>
