A British Government official confirming that there were 815 Armenians in Calcutta at the time of the British 1911 Census.

| 1911 Census for Armenians in Calcutta |
Just take a moment. This has NEVER been released before. Analysis of the 1911 Census in India does not show Armenians as a separate group (unlike Parsi's who are listed separately) but rather they are part of the "Christian" group analysis.
This is a significant statistical find for the Armenian population of Calcutta and it is brought to your attention here first.
All I need to do now is find the actual Census returns, and we're laughing 😊
