In the front courtyard of the 'Church of Our Lady of Life' at Mattancherry, and not far from the famous site of Coonan Cross Oath of 1653, is the tombstone of John James Stevenage of Eurasian heritage (died, 11 August, 1854). In the following link to 'Jewish Monuments of Kerala' blog, I have discussed in detail about the grave and the incomplete inscription.
