Little is known of Helen Elsie Coleman, a nursing sister.
Helen and her husband, Archibald Bryan Mcdonald Coleman appear to have arrived in Hong Kong in 1940. He was a refrigeration engineer with Dairy Farm.
After the fall of Hong Kong, they were both interned at Stanley Camp and later repatriated in 1943 as part of the Canadian contingent on the Teia Maru/Gripsholm.
