Barbara Anslow:

Her mother was Japanese/German, her father English.  He was working in Shanghai when the Japs attacked, and died there during the war (probably killed by Japs.)  In Stanley with Leilah were her mother, her  sister Edith and Edith's husband Arthur, and their children Mavis and Richard Hamson.  Leilah, now widowed, lives in Canada and we often chat on the phone.

[On the ground floor of the Tweed Bay Hospital was] a small room which eventually housed an internee, Mr. Albert Frain, who sadly lost his senses and was looked after by a male nurse.

It's not clear whether Mr Frain had the breakdown before December 1941, or if it was brought on by the fighting / internment.
