Dear Paulo,
Thanks for the information on Cardinal Gracias and his family tree.
If you remember in those days, Dramapur was ward of Chinchinim.
There was only a Chapel which was under Chinchinim Church.
Also there was no panchayat or post office in Drampur, it was under
Chinchinim, like wise Sirlim and Sarzora. Sirlim is still under Chinchinim.
I have come to know that Cardinal Gracias has some relations in Sarzora
also.
