The National Archives and the National Maritime Museum (NMM) have joined together to create a new free-to-search database resource relating to all the Royal Navy officers and ratings that served in the First World War – Royal Navy First World War Lives at Sea – based principally on service records held by The National Archives.

This resource, which will be hosted by the National Maritime Museum, is available now (with 5,000 records) with the aim of completing the project by November 2018. It will be based principally on the Royal Navy service records held by The National Archives.
