We will need to double check and work backwards.

John Livesey (father of Charles Frederick Livesey born 1885) and John Bower Livesey are two different people. It's possible the first John is the son of the second John Bower Livesey (yet to confirm as John Bower Livesey did have a son called John Livesey born 1848 [mother is Phyllis Ann] but junior's fate needs to be checked going forwards in time)

John Bower Livesey did have sons Charles (born 1863) and Edward (born 1862) (whose mother is Elizabeth) who were the sons granted probate of their father's Will in 1908

I am searching Livesey & Gott (Goetz) and are there still any Livesey descendants in Hong Kong as I am in Australia.

He left nothing to his wife  because she detested?deserted? him and was living with someone else. He left nothing to his children because he had educated them and they were all earning a living. He left everything to Marie Olsen who he appointed as executrix
