I've had another look at the Hong Kong Ladies Directories published in the South China Directory for 1904-1906, which are the only numbers accessible to me in London. In case it helps with matching information given in other lists, here are the only names and numbers given for Caine Road. I’m sure it's common knowledge that there's a separate Peak Directory and a list of Foreign Residents – also an alphabetical record of companies and their staff in the South China Directory. If anyone would like me to look up particular information for these years please let me know by Monday, 4 February, if possible. Annelise has already done stalwart work on the 1907 Ladies Directory. If you've reached ‘W’ Annelise, it would be interesting for me to know against what address, if any, my grandmother, Mrs CE Warren, was listed. In 1904 the ladies list takes up three and a half pages, in 1905 four and a third and 1906 five and a half. The Peak Directory expands dramatically in these years.

1904-6 Ladies Directories

As you know, the BL allowed me to have scans of their Ladies' Directories for 1904-1906, but they have the BL copyright mark across them and I have so far not got down to typing them out separately. That said, if anyone needs to know about a relative's address during those dates, I'd be happy to look them up.
