Notes from Patricia:

In my notes I've come across something I transcribed from Carl Smith cards, which I think relates to this family, who seem to have quite a HK presence in the early part of the twentieth century:

"John Osborne d. 9.11.1932 aged 74 (ie born 1858) came to HK with Royal W Kent Regiment (The Buffs) left to join Royal Naval Yard Police, next joined Peak Tram Co.  4 children - JJ Osborne - asst Superintendant, Money Order Dept, (Post Office) until retirement a few years ago.  AR Osborne Time Office, Taikoo Docks.  PW Osborne HK & China Gas Co.  Mrs Aslett, widow of late Sen. Inspector (sorry, not sure what dept).  Buried Prot Cem. Married Maria Christine Baretta from Macau in St Francis Xavier"
