Chronology of available databases.

[museumtom]

I was trying to construct a chronological list of databases. I am looking for the dates they were made available and trying to get them in order.

Can you help please?

Soldiers died in the Great War, C.D. by N&MP.

Irelands Memorial Records on C.D. Rom.

Irelands Memorial Records online by In Flanders Museum.

C.W.G.C.

Geoff Search Engine.

WW1 records on FMP.

Irish Soldiers Wills.

Folder 3.

Register of soldiers effects.

British National Archives, Royal Navy records.

National Archives of Australia, WW1 records.

National Archives of Canada, records.

American Battle Monuments Commission.

Irish Death certificates. 

Irish Census online.

As you can see this list is only for the Irish casualties.

Thank you all most profusely in advance for any help you can give.

Kind regards.

Tom.

The databases on Ancestry have the date they were added, so Soldiers Effects was added 15 January 2015 (from the Card Catalogue)

Irish soldiers wills. also the 1901 and 1911 Censuses, were available online  by 28 July 2016, (when a reference was added to the FIBIS Fibiwiki page Ireland https://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Ireland&type=revision&diff=63632&oldid=61764) but I do not know the actual date these records became available online. 

Mostly the date added is not recorded, so you may need to contact the websites involved.
