Retrace the footsteps of your ancestors – what will you discover?
Discover the life they led before they found their last resting place in India.
Seeking fame or fortune, Britons first came to India more than 350 years ago. Some returned home as wealthy men. Many others, including soldiers, women and children left their bones here.
You might find it fascinating to walk through similar paths as your ancestors and to uncover information about them – for example discovering an entry for a family marriage in a parish register, being captivated by a memorial in a church, or uncovering an ancestor’s grave in a former colonial cantonment or cemetery.
