1May 1861 L/F/10/121 IOR Neg 57137 (LDS microfilm 218 6562.)
Unc/S
Indexes and Lists of Uncovenanted Civil Servants, Europeans, East Indians and Natives in the Employ of the Govt of Fort St George,Madras as they stood on 1 May 1861.
The indexing of the locations and the individuals in this volume is probably the most complicated in the whole of the L/F/10 series. But it is remarkable as indicated below and by the record examples that follow: -
i. All Govt Offices in Madras were listed within the branches of General, Education, Directorate of Public Works, Judiciary, Revenue and Marine.
ii.The offices, each having Europeans were then numbered consecutively through the branches to a total of 1-115; those having East Indians were numbered 116 -202 and those having Natives from 203 – 318. A numbered return was only made if members of the class concerned were present on the site. Details of all sites were shown on ‘A’ forms for all Europeans, ‘B’ for all East Indians and ‘C’ for all Natives.
iii. To derive alphabetical listings, each class was laid out in its sequence and members were then numbered consecutively through the class, Europeans 1-309; East Indians 310-544 and Natives 545 to 1102. Three alphabetical listings were created, each name prefaced by the consecutive number within the class and suffixed by the page number between 1-318.
iv. The example below shows a typical European ‘A’ form return, page number 1, with the consecutive number 7: -
No., Name, Age, date of present appointment, Marr’d/Unmarr’d , Description
7 Upshon, R, 44 18 Feb 1858 Yes
of appointment, Salary, Period of former service in Govt employ
Registrar 300R p.m. 22 years 9 months.
Period of residence in India – born in India – all filed as page 1 within the file
An East Indian, J Davis is shown as No 316 on page 116 (a ‘B’ form) while another, J Ball is shown as No 534 on p196 (another ‘B’ form).
Probably by accident, a Covenanted European, Charles Abdy Andrews, a 27 year old Civil Surgeon at Vizagapatam is shown on p.86.
The numbers shown on the extreme left hand side of the site index have been omitted since they probably refer to ‘budgetary heads’ and are therefore irrelevant to the present task.
The records following show firstly an abridged section of the site index relating branches to sites and to class of individual; secondly a section of the Alphabetical Index, relating consecutive members of Europeans (No 7 on site/page 1) and East Indians (No 534 of site page 116) and thirdly a copy of site/page 1 (Upshon – consecutive number 7). This arrangement of indexes is the only one in the L/F/10- series that readily relates branch, site, name of all classes within the one Uncovenanted system.
