I was not aware that the first school site was on Bonham Road, Hong Kong.  I was only familiar with the present location of the school in Kowloon.  My father, Willie Reed and his brothers attended DBS and I wondered about the distance they had to travel from their home on Broadwood Road, so this explains it!

Allen, Gwulo.com is a wonderful venue and source of information.  I learned so much more about my father's family and relatives going back to my great grandparents, thanks to input, comments and research from contributors to this website. I am especially grateful to Jill Fell for her interest and help with my family background, and to Ann Pake for the historical data she provides. A special thank you to David Bellis who founded this website where so many memories and nostalgic photos of old Hong Kong are shared. I hope you will be able to find more information about your family as well.
