Hi Rosie,

I am convinced this is the correct person. Forfarian has kindly sent me the image of the burial record and the Occupation is 'Spinning master, Subhas (maybe? Can't quite make out the name) Jute Mill'.

He died of Cholera.

Thanks again for everyone's help.

Might it be 'Subpur'?
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

https://wiki.fibis.org/w/Sibpur#Spelling_variants

This gives "Seebpore" as one of the spellngs for modern day Shibpur.  Although the section  "Jute in India" on the site has maps, but I can't find the mill, but perhaps someone else can help.
