Ancestry adds Web: UK, Chinese Maritime Customs Service Index, 1854-1950

Here's one I didn't see coming, thousands of records of British staff in the Chinese Maritime Customs!

Ancestry has extracted at index with name, date of first appointment, date withdrew and port on withdrawal. Clicking on view record adds a transcript with position on first appointment, position on withdraw, mode of withdrawal and a link to the originating University of Bristol Chinese Maritime Customs Project website at http://www.bristol.ac.uk/history/customs/resources/servicelists/databases.html.
