William Frederick Pownes died 1883

Nishatganj Cemetery, Lucknow
                 Sacred
       To the Memory of  
WILLIAM FREDERICK POWNES
     WHO DIED AT LUCKNOW
          10TH APRIL 1883
           AGED 57 YEARS
              6 MONTHS
            AND 29 DAYS
Who would Rose Pownes be to
William. Rose's son Wilfred died
in 1903

My search for the Pownes family on the
net came up with a Liza Mahjhrin of Kuala
Lumpur searching for information on  possible
descendants in Kanpur and Lucknow.

Apparently Rose A Pownes nee Smith born 1869
was married to James Pownes in Lucknow
in 1885. She died in 1948 aged 79.
This information comes from Henry Bourne Church in an email. I've tried to locate Henry's first email to no avail.
