These twelve cities were not visited in alphabetical order
as they are listed. Bombay was the starting and completion
point within this span of control. The map of India in

Replies were received from all the Archbishops and Bishops
between November and March 1989. The majority of the
letters offered at least two names and addresses of
prominent Anglo-Indians, Anglo-Indian Associations or
Anglo-Indian schools.
One name was usually an individual, or an Association, or
the name of a School and the name of the Principal. The
second name was either, another member of a religious order
who knew Anglo-Indians, or, were the names of social
workers or politicians. A few of the names kept
reappearing in the letters, and these Anglo-Indians were
obviously well-known in the community.
On receipt of the names and addresses from the Archbishops
and Bishops, one hundred and twenty six Anglo-Indians were
contacted. These individuals were Tknglo-Indian
politicians, social workers, Principals of Anglo-Indian
schools, Anglo-Indian teachers or the Presidents of the
various Anglo-Indian Associations in India. These
letters were written between November 1988 and July 1989
and offered information about the thesis and a request for
an interview. There were three specific points covered in
each letter.
