With Remembrance Day near, FMP released a collection to honour those who served in the First World War. Each photograph, drawn from the newspaper archive, reflects courage and sacrifice.
New This Week:
Faces of the Fallen 1914-1918
3,468 records added covering 1914-1918. These images come from local newspapers that published tributes to soldiers from their communities, often showing them in uniform. Scrolling through the array of faces is salutory, like visiting a war cemetery.

22,752 new records from 1899-1902 are now available.
British Isles Gazetteers
2,658 records added spanning 1870-1904. These geographical dictionaries help pinpoint historical locations and provide insight into the places your ancestors called home.
Nine Wartime Newspapers
New titles include Citizen (London), Midland Free Press, and Western Express. These papers demonstrate how the war impacted local communities and how people experienced events as they unfolded.
