Excerpt from The Hearseys Five Generations of an Anglo Indian Family
It will be observed that there are inconsistencies of spelling in the pages of this book. The practice adopted has been, in the portions of the book written by members of the Hearsey family, to leave the proper names as written by them.
When writing in my own person I adopt the modern system of spelling Indian names, both of persons and places, making an exception in favour of the spelling of very familiar names, such as Calcutta, Lucknow, Cawnpore, which by common consent are written in their time-honoured form.
