    3. Association member Nigel "Ollie" Sackett has spotted a Saket place in New Delhi, India. The name would appear to have a distinct Indian derivation and would not therefore be related to the Sackett family. Wikipedia has two mentions: 1. "Saket is an upmarket residential colony located in the South Delhi district, of Delhi, India. The name Saket in Sanskrit means a place that is close to the heavens and Saket was the ancient name of the city of Ayodhya."—see Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saket_(Delhi) . 2. "Saket District Centre is a commercial centre located in Saket, New Delhi."—see Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saket_District_Centre .
