The [[British Association for Cemeteries in South Asia|BACSA Archive]] at the [[British Library]], shelfmark Mss Eur F370 includes the following entries in its catalogue under Cemetery Files, Nos 1-853Notes: The arrangement of this list and the names of provinces, places and cemeteries are based on the list which BACSA took over in 1976 from the British High Commission in India. The cemetery status (i.e. whether open or closed) is based on the information to hand, and may since have changed. If a particular cemetery is not in the list, some details of it may sometimes be found in the general file for the province or town in which it is situated. Calcutta (Kolkata) 620 Calcutta, General 621 St John's Churchyard, Calcutta 622 St John's Churchyard, Calcutta: “St John's Church, Calcutta” by Pauline Rohatgi (1979): “This hallowed spot” by Reginald C Adams (typescript, c1978): “St John's Church (1787-1987)” 623 South Park Street, Calcutta: History 624 South Park Street 2, Calcutta: BACSA Connection 625 South Park Street 3, Calcutta: photos 1 626 South Park Street 4, Calcutta: photos 2 627 South Park Street 5, Calcutta: Maps of South Park Street 628 South Park Street 6, Calcutta: Photographs of Standing Tombs, Area 1 (North-East) Kept in BACSA Cupboard 629 South Park Street 7, Calcutta: Photographs of Standing Tombs, Area 2 (South-East) Kept in BACSA Cupboard 630 South Park Street 8, Calcutta: Photographs of Standing Tombs, Area 3 (South-West) Kept in BACSA Cupboard 631 South Park Street 9, Calcutta: Photographs of Standing Tombs, Area 4 (Central) Kept in BACSA Cupboard 632 North Park Street, Calcutta: 1799-1880, closed 1799-1880633 Lower Circular Road, Calcutta 1841-: 1841-, open 1841-634 Bhowanipur [or ‘Fort’], Calcutta: 1841-, open 1841-635 Scottish Cemetery, Calcutta : 1826-1945, closed; reopened : see also Mss Eur F370/1406 for burial and plot registers, 1817-1990s 1826-636 French Cemetery, Calcutta : 1796-1894, closed 1796-1894637 Catholic Cemeteries, Calcutta : Murghihatta: 1712-1869, closed: Dhuramtollah: 1833-1892, closed: Boitakhana: 1809-1879, closed: St John's Catholic Cemetery: 1808- 1712- 638 Minor Cemeteries, Calcutta: Armenian: pre-1707-: Entally: 1919-1945, closed: Greek: c1777-, open: Maniktalla: 1874-1912, closed: St Stephen’s, Kidderpore: Bowrah Cotton mill 1707-1945639 Jewish Cemeteries, Calcutta : 1840-1983, open 1840-1983640 "Bengal Past and Present" extracts: 1907-1940643 Bandel, W Bengal: Roman Catholic: 1756-1919, closed 1756-1919 646 Barrackpore, W Bengal: Old: 1783-1863, closed: New: 1862 -, open 1783-647 Berhampore, W Bengal: Kassim Bazar: 1759-1802, closed: Soldiers: closed: Babulona: closed: Kalikapur (Dutch): 1721-1792, closed: Motijheel, Murshidabad: 1785, closed 1721-1802651 Chinsura, W Bengal: Dutch cemetery: 1743-1846, open 1743-1846656 Dum Dum, W Bengal: No 1 (Old): consecrated 1823, closed: No 2 (New): consecrated 1859, closed: No 3 (New): consecrated 1911, open 1823-657 Howrah, W Bengal: consecrated 1833, 1846, 1866, closed 1833 674 Serampore, W Bengal: Popham Street: closed: [Missionary Cemetery]: 1807-1914, closed 1807-1914 1406 Scottish Cemetery, Calcutta: Plot Register, 1826-1990s : Burial Register, 1917-1989 : Plan of plots       the heading Publications - Calcutta.
