NationalArchivesUk class

final class NationalArchivesUk implements CivilRegistryInterface NationalArchivesUk.php:33

Discovery, the catalogue of the UK's National Archives and of some 2,500 archives across the country: wills, service records, prisoner-of-war cards, settlement examinations, parish papers... described piece by piece, many of them by the name of the person they are about.

It is a catalogue of archives, NOT civil registration: births, marriages and deaths of England and Wales are held by the General Register Office, which has no public API. Every record is therefore of the kind OTHER: a document that names the person, with its reference and who holds it - not an act, no structured person, no picture. A question for births only is not one for it.

Free, no key. The API asks for moderation: one call a second, at most 3,000 a day per address.
