In 1956 Valdimir Stepanovich Malysheff applied for US Citizenship and gave his wife as Lidia nee Korshoonoff and said they were married 1 February 1956 in Hong Kong Lidia born 20 March 1902 died 12 January 1997

His journey from HK to Australia in 1945 was announced in Repatriation Notice No. 35.

It looks as though he returned to Hong Kong after recuperating in Australia, as page 19 of the Jun 19 1949 issue of the SCMP has an article "IMMIGRATION: Rules Broken By Junk Owners COURT WARNING" that mentions a "Sub. Insp. Korshoonoff of the Boarding Office".
