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)

This is either a relative of my Mother Peace Irene Elloy who was born in Lucknow in 1919.
ReplyDeleteUnknown is that right? Is there any other information you might have about the Elloys?
ReplyDeleteSorry for delay. Mum was youngest child of Cuthbert Sutherland Elloy and his wife Evelyn Nessie (Hawkesworth). She was born 1919
