George William May, husband of Mabel, father of Arthur, arrived in Hong Kong in 1910/11  with the Royal Engineers. Before the end of the decade he had left to join the Waterworks Office within the Public Works Department (Ronald Taylor, The Arthur May Story, pp. 4-5). Like his wife he was involved with the Theosophical Movement, on one occasion giving a public lecture on 'Spiritualism and Theosophy'.
