COOK Family Tree
with links to British India
Hi,
I am janakie from sri lanka,50 years old and
trying desperately to find my grandmother's relations who are anglo indians, My
grandmother was a Cook and her maiden name was Evelyn. Evelyn married my
grandfather, Gerald de Silva when he was in madras on duty and both of them
came down to Sri lanka. But after the birth of my mother Barbara, she retuned
back to India and never visited the island again. May be there are relations
of hers in Madras still and i would appreciate if somebody could trace any one
of them. My mother is in her mid seventies now and cant remember much details
as she was only 2 years when all this happened. According to her my
grandmother was a matron in a hospital in madras and she had met my GF whilst
he was warded for treatment. i know i cant help you much but at least i am
trying if by luck i could trace my maternal relations.
My mother Babara was born in the town of
Kotagala in the Nuwara Eliya District on the 13th November 1927. She also
says that her mother Evelyn Cooke had a sister called Rose Foks. My grand ma
had worked in the Madras civil hospital till she got married in 1926 as the
matron in charge.
Thanks
regards
