The 75th anniversary of VE Day is the perfect time to remember, celebrate and discover family heroes with iconic stills of the Allied Forces. It's quick and easy to pinpoint a World War 2 soldier, sailor or submarine with our clever search tools.
Millions of women and children were evacuated from British towns and cities as war was declared. Photos taken at the time provide a glimpse into their remarkable stories.
"With Findmypast, I discovered an amazing photograph of my great-great uncle. Mum and I knew he’d lost his life in the war but had never seen a photograph of him. It was so emotional when we finally saw him, staring back at us."

The Findmypast Photo Collection - frequently asked questions
Most of the photos currently available help you reimagine the Second World War, with high-quality images of the Armed Forces, evacuation and the Home Front. There are also smaller collections depicting the history of everyday life – work, school, sports, family events and more. You'll find prints from Britain, North America and beyond.
From a range of sources including UK publishers, Reach PLC and Library Archives Canada. Many of them have never been published online before and are only available at Findmypast. The collection will grow with more additions as time goes on.
Our search tools are cleverly designed to help you find photos quickly and easily. Just type in any information you already know and see what results come back. This handy guide on finding photos of your ancestors will help you go further.
If you haven't already, start building your family tree for free and add the snaps you've found to bring it to life. Then, branch out into billions of other family records to uncover rich stories in your past that have helped shape your present.
