HUGE BIG QUESTIONS TO BE ANSWERED!!!

There are a few bits of information about Freddy available through the Chinese Heritage Foundation which raise a series of new questions:

1 : Freddy had a Chinese bride Quan Chong and in 1931, they had one child, a girl called Gee Fong, known as Gow Gun. (this birth and marriage was in China so there will be little information i can access in regard to them, however they may have lived or dies in NSW as well so i should add them to my grave search)

2: Freddy set up a fruit and vegetable shop on Parramatta Road, Homebush. ( I wonder if it is still there, or at least the caveat of the land with his ownership recognised)

3: As mentioned in the last post; Freddy's company registered as Asia Airlines pty ltd; which may have a paper trail to follow.

4: Fred supported the waterside workers' picket at Port Kembla, to halt the export of iron to Japan which the wharfies believed could be used to make military weapons. (This must have made the local papers so i shall try out the mircofilm at Wollongong library and see what i can come up with)

5:Fred was one of the pioneers to assist in the establishment of the Australian branch of the Chinese Seamans' Union. (The CSU may also have made the local newspapers in and around Sydney during the war years)

6: Freddy assisted the establishment of the first performances of Cantonese Opera in Sydney. (This fund raiser for the war effort was featured on the Chinese Historical Display at he National Museum which is mentioned in my first post)

7: He died in an accident on a catalina flying boat at Lake Boga in Victoria. (it would be interesting to see the local papers or police report on this...which will be hard to get as it is national not state)


SO MUCH RESEARCH TO BE DONE!!! AND REALLY NOT ENOUGH TIME!!
