      My wife is Anglo-Indian from Chennai, where there is a distinct culture of Anglos who largely worked on the railways.  With odd retro-English names like Dolly and Edgar.

      And they’ll do annual train trips down to the church at Velankanni.  A proper pilgrimage that is much more intense than what you’d find in most Western countries.  They do old style Catholicism.

      Isn’t this like 15 years ago – not sure if this is accurate or if there would be an accurate survey in the near future.

      But what I’ve noticed irl is – yes there’s a considerable number of Christians in Kerala, Maharashtra, Goa and Nagaland (the NE sister states included).
      Orissa and MP had a lot of missionary efforts in the last decade (where some sad things made national news even)

      It would be great to see distribution survey of various Christian denominations (individually like Catholics, Protestants, Orthodox, Pentecostal, Methodists, and *Mormons?* If any).

      I know an Indian dude in the states with an English last name (he said they got it during the Raj) who was complaining about traveling outside of town to visit his mom’s megachurch.

      What denomination are we talking about? I could see the area around Goa having a Catholic population due to its history with Portugal but the North East has me confused. I’m assuming successful missionary work from years gone by.
