Images from the last world war ………..

Now, as we edge closer to a very different Remembrance Day, Findmypast have followed Ancestry in releasing more images from their collection of wartime pictures.


Leaving me just to quote their notes, ………. “search thousands of fascinating images and connect with these snapshots of the past. 

This unique collection brings together original images capturing the events of the Second World War as well as local news of sports, schools and life events. 

The collection has been created in partnership with Mirrorpix/Reach PLC and also features photographs from Library and Archives Canada. 


You can search the photos by keyword; such as war, boxing, 1920s, Home Guard, Arsenal, women, etc. 

You also have the option search just by year, subject or country. Use the arrows on either side of the photo to discover more2.

So there you have.
