Alfred WHITTAKER [c.1873-c.1953]

Submitted by 1314 on

Alfred Whittaker served in the Boxer Rebellion with the 1st Chinese Regiment and on the later disbandment of that Unit became one of three Inspectors in the Wei Hei Wei Police Force.He served with them until the rendition of WHW in c 1930.

I lose track of him until he appears,with his wife,as Interned in Stanley,being descrbed as a " Caretaker" .He died in HK in c 1953.

Gratefull for any information on him,particularly in the period 1931 - 1941.

Fisher is mentioned in W J Carrie's diary as a missionary.

Carrie and Fisher were in the same room, and from Carrie's diary entry for 23 Feb 1943 it appears they pooled their food resources:

We got 4 tins M & V and 2 tins Bully at the beginning of the month, so for Fisher and myself that is 12 tins - the M & V only does one meal and the Bully 2 - so there is only 16 meals for the month.
