2012 visit to Naini Tal |
Friday 24 Oct 2014: William Oliver Lamacroft |
falls within the Nainital Cantonment, while returning from
Bhimtal. The next morning accompanied by a son-in-law, Warren Hopkins and my son (in pic) we
strolled down about three km from our hotel
to take a look. Cemeteries have always attracted
me but finding the graves of my grand uncle
Edward Shepherd and two of his sons came as
a surprise. Warren had visited this graveyard
a few years earlier because he happened to pass this way and remember there were more graves near the entrance that seem to have disappeared
SACRED TO THE MEMORY OF WILLIAM OLIVER LAMACROFT HM 65TH REGT WHO DIED AT NAINITAL ON THE 18TH APRIL 1881 AGED 26 YEARS |
