I found Edwin Arthur Griffiths in the National Probate Register. He died 26 April 1868 as a bachelor. No doubt the right body as administration was granted to Emily Adria Bush of 1 Worcester-terrace, Clifton, Glos. widow the sister and one of the next of kin (so there were others?). He was officiating deputy collector of the Salt Revenue Department at Kheura. He lived and died at Pind Dadun Khan in the Punjaub (sic). Can our India experts build further on this?
