Strait Settlements - British Asia




The Strait Settlements were a group of British territories in Southeast Asia established in 1826 as part of the British East India Company. According to Wikipedia... originally there were four Settlements: Penang, Singapore, Malacca and Dinding. Christmas Island and the Cocos Islands were added in 1886, and Labuan in 1907.

The Strait Settlements Blue Book has names of British and Asian people who worked there, and info about the Settlements.
