Some Armenian births in Calcutta

A number of Armenians in Singapore and Malaysia had connections with the Armenian communities in India, Dacca and Burma. When searching the microfilms for names of interest to me, I decided to copy other names  written in English while I had access to the films. Please note that very few of these people are mentioned in my book.  These lists are just to assist others working on family histories.  Details of the films can be found on the LDS website – www.familysearch.org.

Below are the names of some of the Armenians who were baptised in Calcutta. As records prior to 1891 were written in Armenian, they have not been included. Most of the names from 1891- 1907,  plus some others up till 1913 are listed here. The names have been taken from LDS films numbers 1344011 and 1344012 being  the records of the Holy Church of Nazareth Armenian Apostolic Church.

The spellings and dates are as close as can be made out. Researchers are advised to check the original film which contains more details such as the date of baptism, place of birth, names of the priest and child’s godfather, father’s occupation, as well as entries up until 1968. For reasons of privacy, I have not included names after 1913.
