Unveiled at Olympia Yesterday. Ian and Sharon Hartas' new website with well over 1000 links to military family history websites. ukmfh.org.uk
Message from Ian Hartas, UKBMD
Dear all,
It has been a year since we launched the UKGDL web site
and has been a great success. So now is the time to do the
same again and launch another -- UKMFH.
UKMFH stands for UK Military Family History.
Working in the same manner as UKBMD and UKGDL the new UKMFH
is a free to use site providing links to web sites that
offer information online that will help you trace your
family history for those in the Armed Forces.
RAF/RFC, Navy, Army, Marines -- the aim is to cover all
aspects of military history throughout the ages for a wide
range of categories.
The range of topics is vast, so UKMFH has a new keywords
search feature -- over 6,000 keywords to choose from !
For example, "Battle of Britain", "Cheshire Regiment" and
"HMS Hood", and many, many more.
As with UKBMD and UKGDL, UKMFH will be updated regularly
as our research continues. There are over 1,000 links
on the site today and we have many more ready to add.
If you know of any sites that are missing from our links
please let us know and we will add them.
As the topic of Military Family History differs a lot from
the topics covered by UKBMD and UKGDL there is a new mailing
list for UKMFH. We aim to post regular update notices
highlighting the most recent additions. Register via the
menu button on the UKMFH site.
