CommentAn alphabetical list of headstones still in existence in the Old Protestant Cemetery at Agram, Bangalore, India. This cemetery was in use from 1806 to 1866 and is sometimes called 'the Agram Cemetery'. The 'new' Protestant Cemetery is at Hosur Road, Bangalore and has been in use from 1866 until the present day.

The following table was prepared by Ronnie Johnson of Bangalore from extensive work carried out by Admiral O.S. Dawson of the Indian Navy. The Cemetery was inspected in 1988, then Admiral Dawson and the ASC listed every grave again during October to December 1997. A new ground plan was made, and graves re-assigned to this new plan. Please note that some of the graves stones listed in 1988 were not found in 1997. They may have been removed. There are many stones that have wandered into the neighbourhood that are not yet listed. This listing is by no means complete. There may be many graves that are buried under the mud, or because of snakes may not have been recorded.

Work is still ongoing to identify all graves, whether with headstones or without, in the Agram Cemetery. Admiral Dawson appeals for help and information on this cemetery. Further information, inscriptions and some pictures are on Ronnie Johnson's site.
