Some years ago I posted a list of the "Ladies" of Caine Road during 1904-1906 from the Ladies Directory. The list doesn't necessarily correspond to the owners listed in the Rate Books. During my trawls of the Rate Books I noted five of the owners of the houses in Caine Road during the same period. I list them below in case the information is useful to someone:

Rt. Rev Piazzoli owned nos. 2-8;

E.R. Belilos owned no. 27;

John Howell May (Shanghai Harbour Master) owned nos. 33 and 35;

Su Yuk Kwan owned no. 39;

H. Mody owned nos. 47 and 49 - "Busy Cottage" and "Forest Lodge" respectively.
