I am trying to get a dataset of temperatures in India before 1947 - say 100 odd years (before partition). Is there a web-site or some place where I could visualize such data or even have graphs of temperature of that period ?
It would be preferable if such information is either in .csv or .json format (both are foss formats) making it easier to manipulate and get some patterns out of it.
It is difficult to obtain such old datasets.
Depending what you are trying to do you could use the 20th century reanlysis made by NOAA-CIRES. The description of the dataset:

Other option is the post-processed dataset released by the CRU: Read the ReadMe:
Other modelled dataset is the 20th century reanalysis by the ECMWF:
