==Old Protestant or Agram Cemetery==
Police Reserve Lines Richmond Road, Bangalore
This cemetery is under the control of the ASC Officers' Mess and permission from them is needed to enter the cemetery. There are Protestant graves from 1813 to 1867. When I last visited it in 1994, it was extraordinarily overgrown, even by Indian standards. However, since then, Admiral Dawson has done a fantastic job cleaning it up and documenting it. Ronnie Johnson has created a [http://searchfibis.fibisourarchives.org/frontisonline/bin/aps_browse_sources.php?mode=browse_components&id=684&s_id=197|database of the headstones in this cemetery]. For photos of the Agram cemetery, visit Ronnie's pages, now archived, on the Agram Cemetery [https://web.archive.org/web/20091020024119/http://geocities.com/Athens/Acropolis/9460/alla.htm (click here)].
