In Lucknow, as in other parts of the world, graves mean little to some people, but a search on the internet proves otherwise! What one will find on this blog isn't even 'a drop in the vast ocean' of tears that would have been shed if it were possible to calculate. The names, the sad poetry, quotes and expression of grief of the loved ones all being ground to dust.
"...We always say that the history of a parish is in its graveyards..." Passage West (from a blog and book by Jim Murphy)

Behari Lal Bose 1868-1941
BEHARI LAL BOSE BORN 18TH JUNE 1868 DIED 2ND SEPTEMBER 1941
Dear Sir, I see that graves of Indian Christians start to appear in the Nishatganj cemetery closer to 1930s and 1940s, did you notice the trend as well? Example: Lillie 'Wahid' 1941, Behari Lal Bose, 1941, Sushila 'Mehta' 1942, M Yusuf Narian, 1941, etc. Or is there another possible explanation?
