David Charles Edmondston

I would be grateful if any member of the family of Hong Kong banker David Charles Edmondston who is reading this would care to contact me as I would like to seek permission to use material in the HKSBC archive in a forthcoming article on pre-war Hong Kong:

Mr Edmondston, as well as being active in relief work during the Japanese occupation, was a member of the BAAG, the British-led resistance organisation. Under interrogation he resisted all attempts to make him provide information about others and died of infection, malnutrition and medical neglect while serving a long sentence in Stanley Prison (for more details see https://jonmarkgreville2.wordpress.com/2013/01/03/hahn-as-source-3-the-art-of-vendetta-david-charles-edmondston/)
