Edwin George William Sait Newman SON OF MARY ANN WARNER SAIT NEWMAN & EDWIN SAIT [1867-1949]

Edwin G.W. Sait was a young boy when his widowed mother Mary Ann Sait travelled to Hong Kong to marry Edward Newman. I found Edwin, aged 4 as a boarder with a family in Southampton in 1871. I know Edwin was educated in England and remained there until about 1882.

I think I've found him in the Hong Kong Directory as E. Sait Newman at the Family Hotel Chefoo in 1888 and 1889. Was he there earlier? After or before his stepfather died?
