The 1861 Worldwide Army Index includes soldiers who served across the World in Queen Victoria’s empire states. The index is also useful for members to identify men missing from the 1861 census.
The newly added military records are available online at www.genesreunited.co.uk and can be viewed on a pay per view basis or Platinum members can choose to add on one or more of the record sets to their package at a low cost.
