[1034] British India in the Early 20th Century: Part 2

Thumbnail for project: British India in the Early 20th Century: Part 2

These photographs come from a collection of glass plate negatives of British India taken in the early part of the 20th century and held by the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland. The photographs are thought to be largely of Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) and other areas of Bengal and north-east India. They show Indian men, women and children at work and leisure as well as westerners. The photographer is unknown.

[1032] The Scottish Cemetery in Calcutta | part 1

Thumbnail for project: The Scottish Cemetery in Calcutta | part 1

The Scottish and Dissenters Cemetery was established in 1820 to cater to the needs of the large Scottish population in Calcutta (now Kolkata). Scots were involved in thriving enterprises, including tea, jute, paper and transportation. Many performed administrative or military function within the East India Company and, later, the British Raj, whose capital was here. For those Scots living in India there was the constant threat of illness and diseases, such as cholera, diphtheria, typhoid and malaria and the rate of infant mortality was extremely high.

Over ninety percent of those buried in the cemetery bear names of Scots origin, such as Anderson, McGregor, Campbell and Ross. Around ten percent are Bengali. Many of the gravestones are carved from Scottish sandstone or granite and still bear inscriptions of the monumental masons who made them, indicating that almost all of them would have been made in Scotland and transported to Kolkata for use. The cemetery was abandoned in the 1950s, following India's independence.

The cemetery was surveyed and recorded by a team from the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Scotland in 2008. These photographs show some of that work being undertaken. There are also photographs from St Andrew's Church, which adjoins the cemetery, and of memorials inside the church which are dedicated to many Scots who lived and worked in India.

Part one of this project gathers together images of: the gate house of the cemetery; survey and recording work being undertaken in the cemetery; St Andrew's, the adjoining church; and memorial inside St Andrew's Church.

[1031] The Statesman Newspaper, 1914

Thumbnail for project: The Statesman Newspaper, 1914

Pages from a 1914 edition of The Statesman, an English language Calcutta-based broadsheet newspaper. The pages give an insight into British India at this time, showing bills of entertainment, police notices, small ads and news reports. The Statesman is India's largest English-language newspaper. It incorporates two other publications: The Englishman (founded 1811) and The Statesman and New Friend of India (founded by Englishman, Robert Knight in 1875). British run and managed during the time of colonial rule, control of the newspaper passed to Indians following independence. Originally published only in Kolkata (formerly Calcutta), today the newspaper is also printed simultaneously in New Delhi, Siliguri and Bhubaneswar.

[1022] The Medical History of British India

Thumbnail for project: The Medical History of British India

These rare documents form part of the India Papers collection, an extensive collection of official publications from British India, held by the National Library of Scotland. The digitisation of the medical history volumes was funded by awards from the Wellcome Trust and records the demands placed by both epidemic and endemic diseases on the colonial Indian state and its development of public health in the period from c.1850 to 1920. The reports in this collection reflect the state's efforts to study, understand and control diseases like cholera, plague, malaria and leprosy.
