Title: Chandranagar Cemetery Dehra Dun look up offered
Post by: foxjohnstone on Friday 10 September 10 10:24 BST (UK)

Hi

I have a great book on the Chandranagar Cemetery in Dehra Dun which lists the monuments/grave which still stood in the 1990's.

Happy to do a look up for relatives of yours who may be burried there.

ps , please give me a couple of days for replies as i am not always on the computer :)

Thank you in advance for you offer of lookups.

Could you please have a look for the following PETTERS family members to see if any are buried there?

Malcolm Campbell Petters b. 1873 Kurrachee, Bombay
  his wife Alice St. Clair Petters
  his children:  Phyllis Enid Frances Petters b. 1904 Dehra Dun, Bengal, India
                       Percy Cyril Campbell Petters b. 1906 Dehra Dun
                       Alice Maude Elsie Petters. b. 1907 Dehra Dun.

I don't have any death dates and believe they were probably buried in Dehra Dun.

You might come across other Petters ( I have Malcolm's father, mother and siblings names but thought this would be a good start.  If you come across any Petters I would be thankful.

Also a name I believe is associated with the Petters is Leiderhelmand.

Hi Gem,
I don't know how old your original post is but I was wondering if you could look up in your Chandrangar Cemetery book to see if there is mention of a grave for Frederick William Webb who was born in 1942 and died either in that year or 1943.
Best,
Steve

hi, I am interested if your book contains inscription for William Rollins, buried at Chandranagar in July 1946. He is listed on p127 of the burials book, which is no longer available at BACSA.

thanks
