Family Tree of Jogomaya (my mother) and Nilima (my wife)

My maternal grand father, I didn't see, had four daughters and one son. three of these daughters were married and one remained unmarried. She was of my age named Renu. I used to tease her when I went there to be admitted in class I in a primary school. My maternal uncle was reading in a high school there.
I stayed in my maternal uncle's house about one year. There was a Kali Bari with a big pond. Most of the villagers took drinking water from the pond. It was very clear.
My maternal uncle came to Calcutta after partition of India. He passed Matriculation Examination in his village and got admitted in B.Com in the night shift so that he work in a office. My father arranged for him an apprenticeship with some stipend in a farm so that he could continue his studies. A room in the ground floor of the building where we stayed was procured on rent to stay. After some time it was noticed that Renu (my masi) was attackede with Bone TB . She had to undergo treatment in a hospital R.G.Medical College near our house. I had to take her in my lap and put her in a pulled  Rickshaw for going to the hospital. My maternal grand mother died something like last   part of 1940s.
My maternal uncle did not stay long with us. He got a service in Indian Railway, took a rented house of his own and went there with his sister.
My maternal uncle ( Bishnupada bhattacharya)was also a patient of TB and undergoing treatment. He was attacked thrice. In the last chance I took him to a Kabiraji TB Hospital in Shyambazar where I had some source, some times in 1950s, he was cured and did not relapsed his TB any more. He, by dint of his labour, became accountant in Eastern Section of BNR. Later he was married and had a son        

Renu Masi was also married, became widow and living still now. She had a  daughter, married, and living along with her mother in Sonarpur, 24-Parganas (S).
