FindmyPast updates First World War Soldiers' Medical Records collection

There's not a lot added to FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) this week, but the following may be of interest:

British Armed Forces, First World War Soldiers' Medical Records

After winning 50% of your votes in last week’s community poll, we’ve added over 1,900 new entries to this important Great War collection.

As well as names, ranks and service numbers, the records reveal details you won't find elsewhere, like illness or wound descriptions and how long the injured soldiers stayed at a medical facility.

Some Roman Catholic records for a few regions in England have also been added. For further details, and links, visit https://www.findmypast.co.uk/blog/new/english-catholic-parish-records
