Happy Father's Day to the immigrant Papas who moved across the world to plant roots in an unknown land. The ones who didn't have a roadmap and are trying their best. The ones who never looked back in order to create a life where we can intentionally make choices they never had.

This is an amazing resource! I accidentally found my great-great grandfather in these records, who like many had been lost in history. Luckily with these records, we can change this!

But, unlike the 73,000 from the Indian army of the First World War commemorated by the Commonwealth War Graves, his name is missing. It is possible Kola Singh is one of many Punjabis whose sacrifice has been revealed by the Punjab Register, but who remain un-commemorated. (3/4)

Thanks Channel 5 Need for covering this and featuring Jasmin who found her great grandfather while volunteering on the project
