1 Compiled from a list prepared by the staff of the India Office Records, Foreign
and Commonwealth Office, London. The dates shown here are those of the appoint­
ment of the individual officers. However, an officer may have at times assumed
his duties before the official confirmation of his appointment, hence the occasional
discrepancy between the date of the performance of his duties and that of his
actual appointment. Other discrepancies arise from the complexity of the records.
