Australian Searches for Ancestral Tomb at Kolkata's Former Cemetery Site

Australian lawyer Jason Walker visited Kolkata's former North Park Street Cemetery, now occupied by the Assembly of God Church, seeking the tomb of his ancestors. The cemetery, leveled in 1953, once held graves of notable figures like William Makepeace Thackeray's father. Walker's family stayed in India after Independence, unlike some relatives who left for Britain. A lone sepulchre, possibly related to his grandfather's sister's in-laws, remains on the site.
