I have just joined in the hope of finding information about one of my ancestors Annie Jane Cole (nee Thomas) who apparently died at the [St Paul de Chartres French Convent] on 1st April, 1912. Annie Cole was a patient at the Convent, and as far as I know was visiting Hong Kong from Australia. Any information about the circumstances of her death would be gratefully appreciated.
Dates of birth & death from the Dictionary of Hong Kong Biography.
