The Twelve Apostles and The Forty Thieves

Submitted by Christine Thomas on Mon, 2015-03-16 00:08

My current project is researching the lives of  “The Twelve Apostles” and “The Forty Thieves” – i.e. the two groups of Royal Marines recruited to the Hong Kong Police in 1899 and 1900 respectively.  Anyone interested in the stories will find them on my Hong Kong Police Ancestors Blog:  http://hongkongpoliceancestors.blogspot.co.uk/

Peter Grant was my father.   He was for a time Chief Inspector of Police in Hong Kong (unsure of district) and was awarded a Kings Police Medal in 1933.    He returned to UK in 1937 married to Laura Joyce Dobbin some many years younger than himself.   My sister was taken with him into a second marriage, and I was adopted at birth a year later in 1940.    She and I only got to know about each other in 2011 and are not linked and in contact.
