(Blogger: When we lived a few years in Khandari 

Lane, Lalbagh, Lucknow till 1981, there was an 
elderly lady, a Mrs Shukla, who lived at the end of the 
lane in an old redbrick bungalow. I was told that
she was a Christian. And, now, three decades later
 I come across this grave and
cannot help wondering whether is it the
same Mrs Shukla buried here!
Just an observation: If I got the
dates right her son Edgar was born
in Jan 1930 and James, Nov 21, 
1930, probably not rare in
those days!
I hope, if a relative comes upon
this post he or she will take
the trouble to add a comment!!)

Blogger: Sorry I'm unable to register my
reply in the comments below so I'm adding it 
here hoping you will see it and respond.
Is there anymore info that could be added,
perhaps, your relationship to the family?
Q. ITC Ltd. Calcutta?
