FindmyPast adds India Office records and 18th century Limerick freeholders records

FindmyPast (www.findmypast.co.uk) has added birth, marriage and death records for British India from the year 1872.

In addition, it has added a database that it calls "Ireland, Limerick City & County Electoral Registers 1760-1776", which actually carries records of named freeholders with a vote qualification from the years 1761, 1768 and 1776, as sourced from the National Library of Ireland. The records are in transcription form.
