The Silver Bowl: 1887 Hong Kong Directory

The Peak Directory 1887

● indicates the names that were also noted in the 1889 Directory. There is a great deal of biographical information included in that post. I am still on a steep learning curve.

W indicates the presence of a wife in Hong Kong.

There are 37 individuals named.
4 of them lived in one residence: Stonyhurst.
6 of the residences were vacant, and are listed at the bottom of the table.
This means there were 40 named residences on The Peak in this Directory.
23 of the men had wives living with them, or else their wives were living in their other Hong Kong residence. The Peak was customarily used in the summertime, and a residence nearer to the shore for the rest of the year.
