Anglo Indian here. Born in Bangalore, but our family on my father’s side started in Madras. I grew up in Australia but am now learning of our Indian heritage. So glad to be from India! These documentaries are very valuable for those of us who were discouraged from asking questions about our family history.

I hadn't heard of Anglo Indians until about twenty years ago. I have always enjoyed history. Later learned more through those ancestry programmes - Billy Connolly has Indian ancestors -. I find these videos very interesting and enriches my understanding of history in all parts of the world. Thank you.

Very interesting documentary. I seldom studied in Delhi based Patrician Brothers school Mount St Mary's and was admitted by Rev. Bro Jerome Ellens and Rev. Bro Christopher Dawes. Brothers O'Rourke, Devery were all founder brothers of MSM. Bro Brenan retired ans spent his years as an old man in MSM grounds always wishing us. Lovely to see them here. Delhi also had a bustling Anglo community engaged in schools, hospital's and embassies.

Janaki, your grandmother's name sounds SO familiar to me ! My mother knew her... I think. Where in Madras was your grandmother? could it have been in St. thomas Mount? Pls let me know. I can be found on facebook under CHRISTABEL PAPOUTSIS (my married name) My mother was Isabel Jones and she sang with a few well known choirs, as she had a gorgeous soprano. We are Protestants. and MOM was very active in the Church. She and my sisters & I left India in the early 70's for Canada, where my mom passed away in 1990. Please let me know more of your grandmother? I also just joined ANGLOS IN THE WIND, today. I haven't been very involved in the AI community as I've had a busy life out here. I stumbled across these episodes accidently last night, and now am determined to finish watching all of them! (: Its great as I've shared them with my adult son, who's half Greek. Its also great knowledge for my 3 young grandsons to know their roots. (: I look forward to hearing back from you at your earliest.(:

One of the best youtube videos I have watched on the 'community'. As a child of the community, I have mostly stayed away from the god-awful stereotyped anglo Indian videos, and for good reasons. However this is a well-put-together video, well researched and most of the secondary research is on point. I have personally used some of the well-known names seen here in this video in my post-doctoral thesis.

I find it intriguing that I've noticed a distinct British heritage influence along the eastern coast of India, particularly in places like Madras and Bengal. Surprisingly, this is not the case when we examine the western part of India, where there is a significant presence of people with Indian Portuguese ancestry. Locations like Goa, Vasai, and Diu Daman serve as common examples. Interestingly, the Anglo-Indian phenomenon in Bombay, or what is now affectionately known as Mumbai, appears to be less prevalent despite its proximity to England.

At last some truthful perspectives on the British presence in India. My mother was born in 1947 in Bangalore. My 2nd great grandfather George Norris was in the police. Then his son followed in to the police too. His wife was mixed race with British and Indian parents. They lived in Whitefield in Bangalore. My great grandmother on my mother's side was also mixed race. Having only grown up in England I would say that Anglo Indians have been ignored. We are culturally a bit lost.

A couple of months back I was introduced by an Anglo friend to a Facebook music group called Yesterday Once More . Boy !!! it was an excellent surprise for me as I always lamented the dwindling numbers of Anglos in the country . I went to a Christian Missionary school and my friend and teachers there were mostly Anglos and they have had an everlasting and a profound influence in me and I always long for my school friends and my Anglo teachers . And the group Yesterday Once More was a happy days are back again for me after almost 40 years !!!! . Well the group has been shut for some strange unknown reasons but it was great reading those nostalging Anglo names which was an extremely pleasant experience for me.

India would owe the development of the Railways to the Anglo-Indian. Then how about the Customs Departments, the Posts and Telegraphs, the English medium schools, colleges and kindergartens, the beautiful air hostesses, the fashion shows, dance schools, stewards and hostesses in most upmarket establishments, and the Hockey and Cricket teams. How about the acting and film schools, the dress designing and tutoring schools, the anglo-indian cuisine and administrative services? We can keep naming a dozen more of Indian infrastructure first established and nurtured by Anglo-Indians. We cannot miss the army and air forces, the sea faring anglo-Indians and the air line pilots that grew these service industries

What exactly is Anglo-indians or Pariahs! I really don't like the attitude & behavior of this community especially the ones who consuming liquor which has made a bad impression on most of the Anglo-indians which other Indians kootaa's have taken advantage of especially Malayalams know as maaloo's & Andhra Pradesh know as kaadaapaa's these Assholes have intruded into the Anglo-indians way of life and have deprived the Anglo-indians of their benefits and legitimate claims & benefits that was denied forcing most of the Anglo-indians to immigrate to other countries like Australia Canada New Zealand UK and USA etc. This was unfortunate and led to the desentration of most of the Anglo-indians becoming a disappearing community in India. I sincerely hope & pray for their welfare and well-being in the coming future and perhaps one day becoming those Good old days where Anglo-indians once enjoyed what they rightly deserve for their hard work & honesty. God bless the Anglo-indians Community.

Anglo Indians unlike Parsis never really Adopted India and Indians , they were inward looking community considering themselves better than fellow Indians and much of their prosperity was due to British benevolence rather than competence and when common public caught to them in competence they lost their edge. Unlike Parsis they were neither hard workers nor much involved with public wrt economic activity in real sense (music , hospitality, theatre these are joke). This video series just shows how they are still stuck in some British Aristocracy culture when British Aristocracy culture itself died in Britain and mainly involved with their fellow community only

The odd thing the Anglos had in their existence was apartheid and segregation with the Hindus with the protection of the British. Anglos enjoyed tremendous social mobility and western style living standards. Anglos had some of the Best Schools in Madras ONLY if you were a Christian. Bible studies and Catholic indoctrination was the norm. Fast forward post 1947, the Anglos who had been previously benefited, found themselves a Target of post colonialism who previously had despised the Indians as an inferior race PANICKED . Anglos packed their bags and left overseas but fate awaited them in these countries. Anglos, in Oz are sticking together with the odd one marrying again the Caucasians thinking white is great. Anglos failed to EXCEL in these countries taking up poorly paid jobs.....as these countries had poor education standards. Ordinary Hindus in Oz have successfully excelled without the protection of the Catholic Church. Pity in 2018 the South Of India especially Tamil Nadu is a powerhouse of economic activity and rising living standards. PLEASE DEPICT THE TRUTH ABOUT ANGLOS IN INDIA AND THEIR EMIGRATION OUT OF MADRAS AND INDIA.

You are right on most counts Jaya. Since we dare to "state the obvious" ,let us see if we can also turn the same magnifying glass and reflect on what WE have done here : 1) Have we taught ourselves the same sense of community and "hanging together" as the anglos have? If so, where are the generous grants and donations for these once famous schools come from? our boys and girls who have studied there or the churches and organization that run it ? 2) Our boys and girls have been schooled and educated by these institutions established and we have been a privy to their homes during the christmas seaons. How many of us have bothered to invite these people into our homes and into our lives during our festivals? Look at the southern railways. Hopefully you have more sense than to quote a bunch of statistics that is associated with general growth of the economy. Are the southern railways the same community now? 3) Where is our sense of pride as native indians? We look at being " cool" with an anglo indian and treat them as show pieces to show off to friends. Then we go back bite about the same people . " They are all plastic . good for a song and dance and thats about it". Why then associate with them in the first place? Do we suffer from an inferiorty complex ? Does taking a position make make me an anglophile? 4) What makes our lifestyle so prolific? We believe in saving for future, in saving for education etc even if we have to cut corners with our lifestyle. Fine. This is how we were brought up. Most Anglo (notice I did not say ALL Anglos) are accustomed to an easier lifestyle (which we might call it) to food , drink and merriment. There are merits to that as well. Their children dont depend on parent's money all the time. They take up vocatinal courses that will find them jobs and earn a living. How many teens and early 20 somethings do we have in our communities that learn the meaning of "pocket money" by working for it? Every lifestyle involves choices. It does not mean that one is right and others are wrong. 5) Have we turned the tide? Do we not have segregation in our own communities based on religion, class, creed and the myraid other ways we have dissected our populations? Are all tamils fighting for the same cause? Just turn on the TV and flip a few channels. 6) Between you and me : We "indegenous indians" go abroad and tell the same story. We are being segregated against based on skin colour and religion. We place people in a box and then complain against the same thing when someone else does it to us. As you sow, so shall you reap. 7) All the old places : Santhome, St. Thomas Mount, Perambur : even veteran lines : sell like hotcakes for property value. Why? because these are communities where the old houses and the buildings still sit in harmony with trees and decent (if not ) bigger sized plots. Then what do our people do? Buy up the land, cut the trees and build monstrocities. Why not live in some "kuppam" or "cheri"? 7) Why do we feel the need to "ERADICATE" a community and REPLACE them with others when we are more than happy to tell people WELCOME TO INDIA.We are all intregrated and happy happy happy... It is the mindset of people like you that we should be cautious about : you have become exactly the same people you describe. Jingoist, insular and with double standards.

Another hate monger with a pet gripe. Need more rants from you agains malyalees, telugus, kanadigas etc. If India had more of your kind then indian children will learn from you and take india forward to join the ranks of syria, etc.

so its good for anglo-indians to look down at brown native indians? and to benefitfrom their whiteness? someone sounds like a colonialist sympatheizer, maybe racism from white people would set you straight

The thing is most Anglo Indians are lovely and warm and would just laugh away your hate-filled comment. You could learn a thing or to from them!

If you live in Madras, and you are practicing Roman Catholicism then you are mistaken in your belief about Jesus Christ.
