lizchater Posted June 27, 2011 Report Share Posted June 27, 2011 Dear viewers, I hope it is not too much of a liberty, but since it has been a forum topic in the past, I thought you might be interested to know that I have now completed my book which records all the Armenian Graves and Inscriptions in Dhaka in Bangladesh. “Armenian Graves, Inscriptions and Memorials in India – DACCA – 1722-1977”. It contains in excess of 160 full colour photographs of all the remaining graves at the Armenian Church Dhaka (Dacca, previously in Bengal but now in Bangladesh). In addition, I have included over 25 individual family tree charts that relate directly to those Armenians buried in Dhaka. These charts have been drawn up from my own research of the Armenian community’s existence there between the 18th and 20th centuries. I have also uniquely cross-referenced the grave inscriptions with the original Armenian Church death register entries and where possible, I have also included important factual information from those registers. All transcriptions and register entries that are written in Armenian have been expertly translated into English, the majority of which have been completed by the very Reverend Fr. Krikor Maksoudian, to further help the Armenian family history researchers around the world who may have a South East Asia genealogy connection. The book is published by Chater Genealogy Publishing through a self-publishing print-on-demand online website www.blurb.com. The direct link to purchase the book is: http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2277738 Please note that due to the print-on-demand conditions of the website, I am not able to take orders for the book directly. To obtain a copy please use the above direct link. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, there are many Armenian graves still in India. Most of the old graves are in Kolkata and the surrounding area, but Armenian graves can still be seen in Chennai (Madras), Mumbai (Bombay), Saidabad, Surat, Chinsurah, Agra and other smaller towns and cities in India. I have looked on your forum to see where you have put the information but I cannot find it, so I am replying here. best wishesLiz Chater Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
