He may be the Charles William ‘Brown’ referred to as a recipient of the Colonial Police Medal? 

Albert Edward CLARKE [c.1885-????]

Submitted by David on

DoB from John Black's list, which gives Clarke's occupation in 1941 as "Civil Servant HKG".

The 1939 Blue Book lists him as a "Senior Inspector of Works" in the Public Works Department, appointed on 7th July, 1926. It also shows he received a $60 language allowance, which I guess means he had some Chinese-language ability.
