Comments
Clarke, Anthony (Dec 42 – 14/12/42)
He died aged 12 days following a premature birth. He was the son of Goscomb Goddard Clarke and Mildred Liu. Goscomb Clarke is described as an ‘ex-police officer’. He reportedly divorced his wife Mildred Liu in Stanley Camp (Source: Greg Leck's List). A note in the Police War Diary states that he was dismissed from Hong Kong Police Service. A second child was born in camp to Goscomb and Mildred in January 1944.

The Carl Smith card is for Anthony's younger brother Dennis.
A 1944 baptism would have taken place in Stanley Camp, but I guess it was done by the Anglican church and so was listed in the Cathedral's records.
