You would think that the place he studied in Baltimore would have records. What they would contain and when (if ever) they might be released to the public I don't know.

He studied and qualified at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore Famous for medical education. They must have records. We know when he arrived her from Southampton. He must have studied a few years .

Bengal was a large region and his exact birthplace would be somewhere in Bengal (some parts nowadays in Bangladesh)

Interesting that his father was a “land owner” !

This may be of interest also…note the address in London.

Thats great info, so in London from Southampton. physician/dr/surgeon. Yes i looked at map and Bangladesh. Father a landowner.Thank you once againm
 
And just noticed that his religion was down as Hindu, and yet he married in a Baptist Church. The eclesiastical experts may know if there would be a problem !

As his father was a land owner it looks like he came from a wealthy family. It could well be that it was all planned, educate in US and the progress to England where he was more likely to obtain a practice ?
 
There was uprising in Bengal 1895. We suspect as a landowner was shot and killed after his birth That's really weird Hindu marrying in a Baptist Church
Selly Park, slot of mons family where in Selly Oak/Park area.
Looks like he was well looked after and plans made I will pick the brains if a relative over the weekend. As Florence Maddocks was her aunt..
Thank you for your efforts and new information.
 
Also on Ancestry, but beyond my payment range, there are other records for JC Bose, including WW1 Reg Draft, a Maryland US newspaper article, a US school yearbook, 1920 US census, o/g passenger lists. These could add info ?

Did Jogesh convert to Christianity ?

I just searched goigle.Alot of unrest especially landowners. If father was unknown on his application for british citizenship in 1961. Anything could have maybe been put down on his marriage cert.
 
This gives us the year of reaching the US, being 1913 when he was aged about 17. He was lodging rather than with any family.

Radnor Ave is in ward 27, being East Baltimore. Johns Hopkins hospital was opened in 1889 in E Baltimore, just a spit from Radnor Ave.
Could the census show the other occupants at Radnor Ave. Medical Students ?
