#South_Park_Street_Cemetery is located on Mother Teresa Sarani, #Kolkata, India. The road used to be called #Park_Street, and prior to that Burial Ground Road.
The Park Street Cemetery was one of the earliest non-church cemeteries in the world, and probably the largest Christian cemetery outside Europe and America in the 19th century. Opened in 1767 on what was previously a marshy area, the #cemetery was in use until about 1830 and is now a heritage site, protected by the Archaeological Survey of India (ASI).
well known business family wanted to turn the cemetery into an arts centre. The demolition work had begun in 1984 and the Calcutta High Court intervened and issued an order stopping further construction work. Nevertheless, substantial damage had already been done by then and many graves were lost.
This grave contains only the following epitaph, possibly indicating that the person wished to remain anonymous: "A virtuous mother (died 1825). The oldest grave in this graveyard is of Mrs.S.Pearson.(1768)
