Mr McReynolds either lived next door to 19 Broadwood Terrace in 1926 or next door to 19 Broadwood Road. He also owned a monkey. He is not on Carl Smith nor on the Jurors Lists. It would be useful to verify his actual address in order to confirm the whereabouts of my grandmother, Hannah Warren in 1926, apparently bitten by McReynolds's monkey in one newspaper report. A second newspaper report gave the victim as her daughter-in-law, Cicely Warren and the location Broadwood Road, not Broadwood Terrace.

Thank you for looking up records for the McReynolds. Maybe there is something in the newspapers about poor Mrs McReynolds's death.

I did a bit more searching. Thomas N MacReynolds might be your mystery man.

Thank you for spending more time on our mystery man. Now all we need is his true address in Hong Kong!
Thomas N MacReynolds
If his wife's death was recorded in a newspaper then you might learn more.
Death of Mrs Victoria MacReynolds 16/9/1923
I'm hoping so. I'm having difficulty with mmis at the moment. My gut feeling is that a single man with violent monkey doesn't quite gel with the big family houses at the top of Broadwood Road.
The 1922 Jurors List, https:/
The 1922 Jurors List, https://gwulo.com/jurors-list-1922, lists Thomas Naughton MacReynolds, Assistant, Asiatic Petroleum Co. Ltd., living at 18 Broadwood Road.
Thomas MacReynolds of Asiatic Petroleum
I was wrong. 18 Broadwood Road was indeed an Asiatic Petroleum house. So, as eurasian_david concluded, the bitten victim was my uncle's wife, Cicely Warren and not my grandmother, Hannah Warren, who was last recorded as sending a family wreath from all the Warrens for a funeral in 1925, but even that may not be a firm proof of her presence in Hong Kong. Thank you everyone for a wonderful Gwulo team effort!
Re: MacReynolds/McReynolds
The Hong Kong Daily Press captures the funeral of Mrs McReynolds on 18 September 1923. Her death occurred on Broadwood Road. See here

As, like David, I now find several entries for Mr MacReynolds in the jurors lists, I think I must have misspelt his name as McReynolds rather than MacReynolds when I entered it in the Search window.
MacReynolds, 18 Broadwood Road
Thanks moddsey. The page deigned to open for me today! Double confirmation of Broadwood Road as the MacReynolds home.
