| Summary: |
This class contains photographic material connected with the work of the WMMS and MMS in Southern India. It is divided into four sub-sections. The first section contains material which has not been assigned to a particular sub-section either because it covers more than one sub-section, or there is insufficient information to assign it to a particular sub-section; the second sub-section contains material relating to Trichinopoly [Tiruchchirapalli]; the third contains material relating to Mysore [Karnataka]; and the fourth to Hyderabad.
Where possible, each place name is identified by a contemporary standard form (generally taken from the Society's Annual Reports) and also by a current modern standard form (generally taken from the Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names) where this has been identified as different. The modern standard for Madras state is Tamil Nadu; the City of Madras is Chennai; Mysore state is Karnataka; Kodai is Kodaikanal and Trichinopoly is Tiruchchirappalli.
