Alec Summers worked for Thomas Cook. He was interned in Stanley Camp with his brother Charles. Their father, Edwin Summers, was one of the oldest foreign residents of Hong Kong when he died at Kai Tak in 1940. Their mother, Celestina, was evacuated to Australia and died in Brisbane in 1942. I think I have found their sister's husband, Robert Fraser Forbes as a salesman at Mustard & Co., living at 7 Aimai Villas, Kowloon in the 1923 Jurors List, but he has been entered as "'Fraser Forbes Robert". I haven't yet found their sister's own name.
