The National Archives of Thailand is moving ahead with the digitization of documents, photos, maps and microfilms, some dating back over a century as well as enabling online searches.
…
There are two kinds of archive materials — written materials and audiovisual records. Audiovisual records include photos, films, videos, slides, maps, plans and more. Only archive documents dated over 25 years are accessible to the public.
Thanks to ResearchBuzz for the heads-up.
I am just trying to learn more about my family and their roots. I was just wondering if there was a freely available place online were I could view my great-grandfather’s birth certificate from what was then Siam (now Bankok, Thailand). My great-grandfather’s name is Walter Emerson Toy (changed it to Joye when he came to the US). He was born on July 10, 1892 to Walter B. Toy and Elizabeth Cooper.
If anyone could help obtain the information I am seeking I would be deeply appreciated. Thank you and take care.
