I haven't been able to find any information about Mrs L.M. Murray who owned "Merville", 161 Wanchai Road, the house where Ellen Olson, stepmother of my grandmother, Hannah Warren, died. The Rate Book entry for 1915-1916 shows that several of the "European" houses in this part of Wanchai Road were owned by the Irish policeman documented in Patricia O'Sullivan's book. We can see Henry Dixon, J.J. and C.L. Lysaught and N.G. Nolan. I'm trying to find out whether Mrs A.M.
