I'm looking for photos / sketches / portraits of him for the CPS project's history book.

Details of birth & death taken from John Joseph Francis, citizen of Hong Kong, a biographical note. It also mentions that he was Police Magistrate in 1878 and 1880.

HKGRO notes that they were "acting" appointments only, see http://hkgro.lib.hku.hk/archive/files/2794ee22c3aa326d40a17b818e10acf4.pdf and http://hkgro.lib.hku.hk/archive/files/cc2dea1f48aed059fb8a5bd3d8a39b21.pdf.

I searched for francis in

  • the photo search at HKPRO: no photos of him
  • HK Public Library photo collection: nothing
  • HK Museum of History: nothing

He didn't serve in Legco.

He was a contemporary of Sir Paul Chater.

No relevant results for francis hong kong in the UKNA.

I haven't found any matches in Family Trees.
