My mother Lily Wang (Leah Gershevich in Hong Kong), her brothers, Alexy, Yuri and Tony, her mother, Rufima Gershevich and grandmother, Maria Kluchnikova, came to Hong Kong from about August 1964 to April 1966 as Russian refugees from Xinjiang, China, along with many other Russian families. My family settled in a hotel off Kimberley Road. Later, they went to live in Christchurch, New Zealand, where the majority of my family still reside, although my sister and are in HK.

The two smallest children are the host's. It was taken at the TST YMCA in Hong Kong. The blonde Russian girl and my Eurasian Chinese/Russian mother (Leah Gershevich) came from Urumchi, Xinjiang, China. Their family settled in Auckland, New Zealand whereas ours went further south to Christchurch. Does anyone recognise this photo and the people within it? See other photos for further details.
