Edward Hutchinson Pollard was the owner who subdivided:

 

Who bought the subdivisions on Seymour Road?

  1. Sec A - Mosque Terraces ?  (not listed in the Land Dept registry)
  2. Sec B - The sisters of the late Henry Davies Margesson - likely the heirs to his estate - 1873
  3. Sec C - Choa Leep Chee - 13-13A Seymour Road - 1888
  4. Sec D - Ho Tung (no address listed) - 1888
