Catriona Hood's great Uncle. We have a Spoon of his with "The Hong Kong Club" logo on it. Catrionas mothers family were close to Walter, he would stay with them when at home while visiting Scotland. I do have a family tree on the website Ancestry where you would see Walter Brown, I tried pasting it here but without success.

Catrionas mother who died 3 years ago knew Walter well, he was a well travelled person visting all parts of the world, he died 14/04/1957 at Marandellas, Rhodesia where he is also buried, we do have a photograph of his grave which I will look out if you are interested. We are aware that there is a Mathematics award in his name used at Hong Kong University.
