I am in the process of transferring to this new site data of 300 Freemasons in Hong Kong from a post I've written in another blog of mine: Hong Kong's First. It will take a while and I thank you for your patience. (12/20/2014)

Today is a happy day since I've now put the most boring task of data transferring behind me. This site now have all 306 names of Freemasons I was able to locate between June and December last year. The research and writing of biographies of subject individuals will now begin (3/25/2015)
