Comments
Dr I. Newton
I wonder if anyone has seen the personal papers of Dr I.Newton in the London Imperial War Museum and able to comment if they are factual 'diary' type or more detailed re his life in HK and/or Camp. Or indeed if anyone has any more information re him. He is noted as being at my grandfather's funeral (K.K.Staple) and I presume my grandmother (Joan Staple) would have worked with alongside him in camp. Grateful for any links.
