Slaughter on the Somme: Finding and interpreting World War 1 records on Findmypast



This webinar focuses on the Somme campaign in 1916, and what you can discover about this event - and the men who served in it - in Findmypast records. Military expert Paul Nixon gives a brief overview of the surviving records, before taking an in-depth look at sample service and pension records, and highlighting ways in which these can be useful in your World War 1 search. He covers how the casualties started to filter back to the UK, and how to search the British newspaper collection.
