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
