Records at the British Library: add other records
Some Church of Scotland Bombay church records and records for St Andrew's Church of Scotland, Madras may be found in [[LDS Microfilms of Church registers in India]], but it seems the records for St Andrew's Church of Scotland in Calcutta have not been filmed and are only obtainable from the church. Contact the Church of North India, refer [[Calcutta#Churches and missions|Calcutta-Churches and missions]].
 
===Other records===
''Bengal Past and Present: Journal of the Calcutta Historical Society'', available at the [[British Library]] has a list of burials based on the original registers in Calcutta, two articles written by Rev W. K. Firminger. They are probably mostly covered by the Ecclesiastical Returns in the B.L., however there may be some additional entries which never made it to England (e.g. the ship carrying the returns to England was lost). There are also some biographical details.
