N.B. The information I've gathered has outgrown the capacity of a single post. That and my wish to put this dictionary in a more organized format, I have started a completely new blog on this very subject – Biographical Dictionary of Medical Practitioners in Hong Kong, 1841-1941. The web address is: http://hkmd1841-1941.blogspot.com. I hope you'll enjoy the new blog. Please also note that I have stopped updating this post since July 25, 2013.

Preface
The idea of putting together a biographical dictionary such as this one evolved from an earlier post I started writing in 2010 about certain notable doctors in Hong Kong. My undertaking to expand what I've already covered to include all the other doctors I can find from available archives was totally unpremeditated, but I am glad I went ahead with it rather impulsively for if I've given more thought about it, I would not embark on so unwise an adventure. More so because this endeavor of listing and biographing medical practitioners isn't founded on my fondness for this branch of academic discipline, which I have little, although I must say I've never disliked doctors. [What about dentists? Clearly, nobody likes dentists. That said, I'd most certainly want to be a dentist – and (il va sans dire) a rich one - if I could start my life from scratch.]
As you can see I have decided to publish this dictionary while it is still under construction, for two reasons. First, it would probably take me another 10-12 years to get it done (since I'll be working on other posts all at the same time...), I don't want to wait that long before I can share it. Secondly, I look at this writing project the same way a building is erected. Nobody hides a building while it is being constructed.
The period I have chosen for this biographical dictionary stretches over 101 years. It begins in 1841, the year British troops took possession of Hong Kong by force, and ends in 1941 when Hong Kong came under the attack and in under three weeks was taken by the Japanese. More than 1,000 doctors existed during this period of time and there were all kinds of them. From devoted men and women of medicine to quitters who ended up being banker, lawyers, diplomat, revolutionaries or even heads of states. From multitaskers who doubled themselves as newspaper publisher, spook (as in spy), whiskey maker (not moonshine) or, most commendably, teachers to the one-track mind bunch whose one and only pursuit was money. How about a chief government doctor who got too caught up moonlighting that he neglected his official duties, which brought him to Hong Kong in the first place. Fortunately, there were no lack of those who reminded us with their deeds how noble the medical profession is – men and women who cured the sick and saved lives, particularly those who made selfless sacrifices, sometime ultimate ones, when so doing. These are the stories of medical practitioners in Hong Kong from the first 100 years. (July 25, 2013)

Notes
1. The years written in the heading of each entry are those between which the subject doctor was recorded to be existing as a qualified medical practitioner in Hong Kong. Events that took place after 1941 will be included in this dictionary as and when I come across them. Furthermore, since the earliest post-WWII roster of doctors I can lay my hands on comes from the inaugural issue of Hong Kong Year Book (1948)《香港年鑑》第一回, unless I can locate specific information I am designating the year 1948 the commencement of post-war practice of these doctors.
2. As opposed to the government register, surnames are listed under their respective prefixes, if applicable, in this dictionary.
3. Selected bibliographies are available to some entries, but not all, simply because I only started including them when I'm done writing the first 200~220 entries. I'll try and fix these early ones bit by bit. I thank you for your patience.
4. The word “unknown” used in this dictionary generally means “unknown to me” as opposed to nobody knows. In most cases, these are matters I do not know for a fact.
5. According to the Medical Registration Ordinance, 1884, doctors employed by the government as well as British military doctors serving in Hong Kong are exempted from registration. This is the reason why some doctors registered to practice years after they had arrived in Hong Kong, as they were only required to do so upon their leaving the civil or military service and venture into private practice. Additionally, I only have access to government registration records dated between 1884 and 1941.

m. Sussy Blanche Mary Hugo [2].
[1] Adams had his named changed to William Stanley Stanley-Adams while sojourning in Hong Kong, for unknown reason(s).
[2] Adams married Susan (Sussy) Blanche Mary Hugo (b. April 11, 1848, Jersey, Channel Islands - d. Jan 28, 1940, Heston, Middlesex) at St. John's Cathedral in Hong Kong in 1867. Hugo was the daughter of Harper Richard Hugo and Blanche Leggatt. Adams and Hugo had eight children: Hilda Agneta Bertha Stanley-Adams, Blanche J. Adams, Maude Beatrice Stanley-Adams, Stanley Hugo Stanley-Adams, Mabel Gertrude Adams, Percy Hugo Adams, Ethel Constance Adams, and Herbert Hugo St. Leger Stanley-Adams. They were all born in Hong Kong where the family lived in a house named Forest Lodge at #11 Caine Road. Julia Hugo, Susan's sister, lived with the family in 1885. Her husband, William Kaye, worked for the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation in London.
[Adams was one of the first nine doctors who registered as medical practitioners in Hong Kong immediately following the enactment of the "Medical Registration Ordinance, 1884" that required all doctors to be licensed before they could treat patients for monetary reward.]
[Adams was said to have held the position of Colonial Surgeon, but I found no other references to confirm this. The only thing I could find that linked him to the top medical office in Hong Kong was that he lived next door to Philip Bernard Chenery Ayres, Hong Kong's last Colonial Surgeon (1873-1897, the position was renamed Principal Civil Medical Officer following Ayres' retirement). Ayres lived in a house called Dinder, #13 Caine Road.]

[The July 25, 1937 issue of the Straits Times carried this strangest story about Aragaki:
Ideal Diplomat Selection by Blood Test in Japan; Stubbornness is a Virtue
To the stringent academic and physical requirements for prospective members of Japan's diplomatic service may be added the prerequisite that they should be possessors of “O”-type blood.
That this should be one of the qualifications of future officials who will deal with the nation's foreign affairs was recommended today to Mr. Koki Hirota, Foreign Minister, by Dr. Tsunemesa Aragaki, the Gaimusho's own physician.
A study of the blood-types of world leaders has shown, according to Dr. Aragaki, that the “O”-type predominates. Other blood-types are A. B. and AB. Up to now, the only interest in such matters was shown by hospitals in preparing lists of potential blood-donors for transfusion cases.
Cool in Emergency
The possessors of “O”-type blood, Dr. Aragaki contends, are more suited to be diplomats because they are cool in emergencies, stubborn, not easily influenced by people, strong-willed, determined and yet gentle.
Dr. Aragaki refused to comment on the possibility that all possessors of “O”-type blood seeking admission to the Foreign Service might “flunk” academic and physical tests.]

[The timely action taken by Chaldecott had probably saved the lives of many Europeans in Hong Kong on January 15, 1857 in connection with the Esing Poisonous Bread Incident. Esing's Bakery 裕盛辦館 was the choice supplier of bakery products to more than 400 foreign households as well as the Hong Kong British garrison barracks. In the morning of the date earlier mentioned, the European community in Hong Kong was panicked when people began to suffer from sudden sickness across Victoria. The one thing in common among the sick, soon it was discovered, was that they all had consumed bakery products delivered to them by Esing that morning. At around 10:30am, Chaldecott, most probably out of his own initiative, started handing out hand-written circulars that bore his signature, which said, “The bread is poisoned. Take mustard (teaspoonful) in warm water; ½ pint & afterward warm water; after vomiting freely, eat raw eggs.” It became known, later on, that arsenic were administered to all the Esing's bakery products on that day; miraculously nobody died directly as a result.]

Winifred Lechmere Clift [3]. d/o Walter Ashby and Caroline Brown. Interned at Nam Ping Hotel (Rm. #415) during Japanese occupation. I've found no record that shows the whereabouts of Clift during that time.
[1] The book room, known as the Emmanuel Bookroom 靈光書室 in later years, was a reading room / library / tea room, which began to publish and retail evangelical books and literatures in ca.1950.
[2] The Emmanuel Medical Mission 以馬內利診療所 continued to operate in the same address until 1967. Another Emmanuel Medical Mission, under a different Chinese name of 靈光醫務所 (later 靈光診所), began to operate at #160 Prince Edward Road, Kowloon City in 1957. A 1963 Inland Revenue Department record lists the Kowloon City mission a subsidiary of The Emmanuel Church 靈光堂. Other subsidiaries listed in the same record included: Deepwell Emmanuel Primary School 靈光小學, Emmanuel Bookroom 靈光書室, Emmanuel Church Shatin Nursery School 沙田靈光幼兒學校 and Kowloon Emmanuel Primary School 九龍靈光小學. The Kowloon City mission removed to a new location at 1/F, #40 Shing Tak Street 盛德街 in 1964. It continued to operated at this address to the present day. A dentistry department was added some time after 1964.
[3] Using the name of C. Winifred Lechmere Clift, Ashby had written no less than four books: Very Far East (London: Marshall Brothers Ltd., 1909), Annals of an Isle in the Pacific (Nanning: s.n., 1915), Looking on in Hong Kong (Hong Kong: Kae Shean, 1927), and Seng Chang Sees Red, and other Stories (London: Marshall Brothers Ltd., 1928).
[A traveling trader, Fung Sang, 26, approached Clift at the medical mission, #218 Nathan Road, on May 31, 1947 and offered the sale of Morphine Hydrochloride, which was classified a dangerous drug. Since there were neither permit nor documents, Clift called the authorities, after examining and retaining the drug and while Fung was kept waiting in the mission. The trader was arrested and was charged two days later with attempting to sell a dangerous drug without a proper permit. The charge against him was withdrawn as government laboratory analyst showed that the “drug” was in fact plain chalk. On his release, Fung was rearrested and charged with attempting to obtain money by false pretenses. He was sentenced on June 4, 1947 to six months of hard labor. Justice William Alexander Blair-Kerr made the following remarks during the trial, "It is a very serious thing when an imitation could fool such an experienced doctor as Dr. Clift."]

[1] On May 8, 1897, the government, under the name of the Colonial Secretary, J.H. Stewart Lockhart, posted a notice in the government gazette to recognize Danenberg's status as a registered medical practitioner. This is rather interesting, not only the government did not punish Danenberg for practicing without a license, but also it gave him a license without his applying for one.

[1] The Convict Hulk was originally the 510 ton barque Royal Saxon, which the Hong Kong Government had purchased in 1864. After having been fitted up the ship was towed to its designated mooring place between the Stone Cutters' Island and Lai Chi Kok in June [h.a.] and declared a Convict Station. 280 convicts were sent on board, from there they were transported to shore daily to perform manual labor, such as road building, etc. [I'm not sure if they actually worked in the quarry on the island.] The Hulk was discontinued in October 1866, there is no information as to what happened to Royal Saxon. Royal Saxon, a British merchantman, triggered (not by design) the Battle of Chuenpee on November 3, 1839 when it attempted to break a British blockade along the Pearl River and in confusion caused the British and Qing battleships to engage one another. The British blockade was set at the entrance of the Bocca Tigris eight days earlier intended to stop British merchants from trading with China through the southern port of Canton. The Battle of Chuenpee set the stage for an armed conflict of a much larger scale between Britain and Da Qing, which became known as the First Opium War.

[Three different names came up in various sources as the wife of Koch: Ida Nathan, Ellen Elliott Drake Briscoe and Elsie M. Thompson, but without the years of marriage. ]
[Koch was referred to as a professor in several sources without specifying the name(s) of university and faculty.]
[1] Koch Sr. (b.1838, Jaffna, Ceylon – d. 1877, Jaffna, Ceylon) was a descendent of Godfried Koch of Brandenburg, Prussia who went to India in the ship "Rosenberg" in 1755 and later moved to Jaffna. Koch Sr. was a much loved and respected doctor in Ceylon. He was also the second principal of the Colombo Medical School. When he suddenly died at the age of 39, the grateful public of Ceylon offered subscriptions to pay for W.V.M. Koch’s medical education in Britain. [What I fail to find is any information that mentions Koch, the son, had worked in Ceylon to repay the society that he owed his medical career.]

[1] Lai was one of the first three women students admitted to HKU in 1921 and the only one to read medicine, but it took her until 1928 to receive the MBBS degrees. Meanwhile, Eva Ho-tung 何嫻姿 who was matriculated a year later than Lai, completed her studies and got her MBBS degrees in 1927, a year ahead of Lai.
The other two women who entered HKU at the same time as Lai were Rachel Mary Irving 艾惠珠 and Irene Cheng 何奇姿. Irving was the daughter Edward Alexander Irving 伊榮 who was the sitting (and Hong Kong's first) Director of Education. Irving was admitted to the Faculty of Art, year three and graduated with a BA degree in 1923. She was Hong Kong's first woman university graduate. Cheng, b. October 21, 904, Hong Kong – d. February 17, 2007, San Diego, nee Ho-tung, was Eva Ho-tung's sister. Cheng received her BA degree in English in 1925 and became the first Hong Kong-born woman university graduate. She went on to become a devoted educator.

Son of Robert Kenneth Laing, born Leung Kam-ming, b.1876-d.1949, and Mary Jordon, born Yu Che, b.1877-d.1958.
Husband of Norah Laing (m.1945).
[1] According to a HKU site Dr. Laing became the first ENT surgeon in Hong Kong, but the fact is Dr. Chau Sik-nin, also a HKU graduate and an Otolaryngologist, practiced in Hong Kong in 1927, seven years earlier than Dr. Laing.
[2] Dr. Laing’s reputation as a racehorse owner was well-known amongst the horseracing fans in Hong Kong. According to HKU information, which refers to records of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, Dr. Laing owned his first horse as early as in 1927. I do not know how credible that is as he hadn’t finished university in 1927. I've learned that his horses are quite popular, although I was unable to find all the corresponding names of the horses in English; here they are: Gay Eighties 快樂八十, Gay Nineties 快樂九十, 快樂一百, 快樂王子, 快樂龍王, 快樂飛馬, 快樂飛俠.

[Dr. Mohan Singh cured my trachoma problem when I was a young teenager. I can still vividly remember how scary the examinations were whereupon he would jam his gigantic fingers into my eyes and flip the eyelids inside out. Since the tests or treatments had included the administration of an eye cream that dilated the pupils so I went “blind” every time I left his consultation room. Thank God I had my mother.]

d.um.
[Marques was said to have taught at the HKCMC for the period 1891-92, but I've found no other references to confirm that.]
[1] A certain report of a medical commission published by the government in around mid year 1895 contained adverse comments that were said to have tarnished Marques' professional reputation. On August 25, 1895, the bulk of the leading Portuguese residents in Hong Kong gathered at the Club Lusitano for a demonstration in honor of Marques. He was presented with an address for his support signed by almost 1,000 of his compatriots. [Unfortunately, I've as yet recovered the medical commission report in matter. It's also unclear to me if Marques resigned or he was let go.]
[2] Strange name. Rednaxela spells backwards is Alexander. Marques' next door neighbor, and friend, was one José Rizal of the Philippines. Rizal, who had a medical degree from the Central University in Madrid and a fellow ophthalmologist, sojourned in Hong Kong in 1891-93 and practice medicine in 1892-93.
[3] Marques' mother, Maria, inherited from her father, Manuel Pereira 俾利喇, merchant and councilman of Leal Senado (Municipal Council of Macau) (1849-50, 1850-51), a large estate that had included the garden known today as the Jardim Luís de Camões 白鴿巢公園. The garden originally belonged to the Companhia de Jesus (Jesuit) since the Sixteenth Century. The ownership went to the Leal Senado in 1762, from whose hands, Manuel Pereira had bought it in ca.1800. Comendador Marques sold the garden in 1885 to the government (not certain if it was the Portuguese or Macau government that he sold the property to) for 30,000 patacas. The sale reportedly did not included the manor house named Casa Garden, in which Marques was born and brought up.

The Great War, Resident Medical Officer, London Hospital; Senior Medical Officer, Norwich Military Hospital; Senior Medical Officer, Norfolk Military Hospital. Hong Kong after the Great War, resumed position at Matilda Hospital. Medical Board, acting member (vice Robert Maclean Gibson) May 27, 1918; member 1919.

Residence: #70 The Peak 1907.
[Sanders was sued by a former patient for malpractice in 1923. The exact allegations made by the complainant, Thorward Anderson, formerly a foreman with Hong Kong Wharf and Godown Company were “unskillful or negligent treatment” to his hand. Anderson suffered multiple injuries after falling 12 feet to the ground while working in the wharf on December 13, 1921. He went to the Kowloon Hospital for first aids and the doctor in charge, James Thornton Smalley, referred him to Sanders for follow up treatments. Anderson went to the Matilda Hospital on the following day to see Sanders who then became his attending surgeon. Anderson alleged that Sanders had treated his other injuries caused by the fall but failed to treat his right hand, which he put out in an attempt to break the fall, as a result causing bone fractures. The trial, presided over by Chief Justice William Rees-Davies, began on December 17, 1923. On the third day of the trial, the jury plainly told the court that there was no ground to continue further as the complainant clearly had not proved his case. Ree-Davies gave a verdict for the defendant and did so with an order for the complainant to pay costs.]
[1]. Sanders was the first medical superintendent of the Matilda Hospital. He probably ran the hospital entirely on his own while treating patients at the same time until the 1923 joining of Dr. Harry Lechmere Clift.

s/o Francisco Soares and Angela Vicencia Ozorio.
m. Iria Joaquina da Silva, d/o Eusebio Jose da Silva and Maria Theresa.
[There is a question posted on the internet, asking if Soares went by the Chinese name of Lam Fai-wing, and whether he was the grandfather of a Edith Lo (as has been described in "A Memoir of Hong Kong's Governance 1950-1991: Social Sciences in Asia", a book written by Eric Peter Ho 何鴻鑾, a former Secretary for Commerce and Industry. According to Annelise who posted to Geni: Lam was the son of Soares, and Edith Lo was the daughter of Lam.]
[1] On May 8, 1897, the government, under the name of the Colonial Secretary, J.H. Stewart Lockhart, posted a notice in the government gazette to recognize Soares' status as a registered medical practitioner. This is rather interesting, not only the government did not punish him for practicing without a license, but also it gave him a license without his applying for one.

s/o Reverend Mungo Neville Thompson, Rector of Clonmany, Donegal, and Charlotte Blake, of Castlegrove, Co. Galway.
[On his second day working at the Government Civil Hospital, Thompson asked the police to arrest the hospital's ward master, John Roy (32), and his predecessor, Henry Watson (35), for stealing from patients in the hospitals two of whom were in dying conditions. Watson instantaneously fled to Canton where he was later apprehended by a Hong Kong police inspector on November 4. He was charged with four counts of larceny and was sentenced to seven years hard labor. Roy was charged with aiding and abetting Watson, but was discharged by proclamation. It was quite ironic that while Roy was being tried, he himself became the victim of theft. The offenders were Ho Abo, Roy's servant, and Ho Awai, a nurse of the hospital; both were charged with theft.]

[The names of Wan Yik-shing and Kuo Shao-hong were the last two entries in the Medical Register in 1941. Hong Kong came under the attack of the Japanese on December 8, 1941. What puzzles me is that Wan's name continuously appeared on the medical register without interruption ever since his first registration in 1921. The need to re-register is unknown to me.]

How Watson's the Chemist began;
b.1815-d.1860; Edinburgh Univ.; private practice in Macau 1845; sold his practice to B. Kane and moved to Hong Kong 1856; acquired interests in the Hong Kong Dispensary [1] in the same year; also held interests in Victoria Dispensary until its closure in 1857 due to lack of business; left Hong Kong for Scotland in 1859 due to ill health; died in 1860 and left a sizeable estate; notable amateur painter; close friend of famous Macau-based painter George Chinnery
[1] Watson's nephew Alexander Skirving Watson joined the Hong Kong Dispensary as manager in 1858. After Watson died, A.S. Watson together with John David Humphreys and Arthur Hunt leased the dispensary for their operation, and from 1862 onwards the name A.S. Watson featured prominently at the Hong Kong Dispensary. In 1871, the Watson family leased the company to Drs. Humphreys and Hunt, and thenceforth the company is known as A.S. Watson and Co., where Watsons the Chemist became the trade name for the retail outlets.
