Hello List Noel said: Quite some time ago I compiled a list of Bengal burials of interest to me, working from films of the indexes held in the British Library. One was in Volume 399 (July-September 1914) and may be found on page 223 of that volume. I have looked at the original burial record - it was of a Rigney Frederick TROTTER, took place in Srinagar, and there is nothing unusual about it. In the index, the entry is for Rigney F. TROTTER., Volume 399, page 223. In the right-hand margin alongside the entry is the notation IS2/152. This notation appears to me to be a cross-reference of some sort, perhaps to another India Office document in the BL. I wrote to the BL asking what it might mean but received no reply. (The BL number of the index film I was reading is Z-N-1-D12.) Does anyone have any clue as to what the notation IS2/152 alongside this particular burial in the index might mean? The LDS beta site has two separate entries, which quote 2 different microfilms, one of which has a reference "page 152" . This latter microfilm is , from the LDS library catalogue, Ecclesiastical returns, Indian States, 1889-1950 (The Native States of Jammu and Kashmir, Madras, Shellong, Bhopal, Hyderabad-Deccan, Bhopal, Mysore, Rajputana, Assam, Maratha, etc. cover the present-day states of Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab in India and Pakistan, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Assam, Karnataka and other states.) These are the N/5 records at the British Library, see the FIBIS Fibiwiki Church records http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Church_records Name Rigney Frederic Trotter Gender Male Burial Date 02 Jul 1914 Burial Place Srinagar, Kashmir, Bengal, India Death Date 02 Jul 1914 Age 34 Birth Date 1880 Marital Status Unknown Indexing Project (Batch) Number B75045-9 System Origin India-EASy Source Film Number 527907 Name Rigney Frederich Trotter Gender Male Death Date 02 Jul 1914 Death Place Srinagar, Kashmir, India Occupation Assist.

Hi Ron, Yes this is the Pyster listed in the site whom died in 1827 that I am trying to find out how I can obtain a death certificate and find out where abouts he is buried. I have no idea how I go about acquiring one and where to start looking for a burial place.

Hello List Karen said: Yes this is the Pyster listed in the site whom died in 1827 that I am trying to find out how I can obtain a death certificate and find out whereabouts he is buried. I have no idea how I go about acquiring one and where to start looking for a burial place. There is a paragraph in the FIBIS Fibiwiki article "Using LDS Microfilms" called " The Church Record" which explains the procedure, http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Using_LDS_Microfilms You need to order a microfilm (and then take a photocopy), or order a photocopy. There is a link(from the previous link) to the FIBIS Fibiwki page "Family History Centres which gives more details. http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=Family_History_Centres The microfilm number is given on the record from the LDS beta or pilot site. The burial entry should give the church where the burial took place. Usually there would be a cemetery attached, or connected with the church Cheers Maureen (Sydney)

Hello Listers, Was wondering if someone could help me in advising how I go about getting a death certificate for 1827. I have found the death of Henry Pyster burial date 16 January 1827. Burial Place was Bombay India. I also would like to try and find out where he is buried. Any suggestions/help would be most appreciated. Kindest Regards Karen New Zealand

Assume the dates of the film are 1769-1789 if so is there a mention of an officer going to India as Ensign Robert Monckton (RM) Grant in 1780/81 or returning to UK as Lt Col.

Hello List Noel said: What exactly were the 'Bengal Public Consultations'? I see them referred to quite often, but cannot find out what they were, other than published documents of some kind. The National Archives Access to Archives site says: >From the beginning of the 18th century down to 1860 the majority of the main records of the central and provincial governments in India supplied for the information of the East India Company and the India Office were known as Consultations. They usually comprise full manuscript copies of the official correspondence (both letters received and sent), minutes and resolutions considered or approved by the governments concerned: India, Bengal, Madras, Bombay, and Agra/North-Western Provinces. In addition copies of certain related records (such as letter books, commercial reports, journals and ledgers, and proceedings of local law courts) were also returned to London during the Company period In 1860 the old-style Indian consultations were discontinued and replaced by a new form of record usually referred to as Proceedings. http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/a2a/records.aspx?cat=059-iorp_1-2&cid=1#1 or http://tinyurl.com/24f6bkn My guess is that the word "Public" refers to the Public Department which originally dealt with the affairs of trade, shipping, revenues, accounts and other matters of a public nature. C 1800 there were four groups of Departments. They were: a) The Secret, Political and Foreign Departments. b) The Revenue and Judicial Departments. c) The Public Department including Commercial branch. d) The Military Department. This latter information is from a link in the FIBIS Fibiwiki page East India Company http://wiki.fibis.org/index.php?title=East_India_Company called "Unit 2 British Administration:1757-1858" from the Indira Gandhi National Open University Cheers Maureen (Sydney)
