Descendants are living in Australia - (Adelaide, Darwin, Hobart, Melbourne, Tamworth and Sydney) NZ, New York and once, Firenze, Italy! (After 42 years moved back to Sydney in 2012) Some are still temporarly living in HK, Munich and Singapore.
We still have reunions from time to time. The last one, was the reunion in Launceston 15-16 April 2023 to celebrate the 150 years of James Chung-Gon's landing on the Australian soil! There was a large gathering of 109 blood relatives, including some 5th generations in Launceston, Tassie! |

The attached documents (below) of The War Precautions (Alien Registration) Regulations 1916 for James & Mary, was sent (23.03.2006) by Megan Neilson along with her personal comments....
This raises an issue that if Chung Gon's naturalization had occurred as indicated in Chin Kit's letter, (Megan's great grand-father) In the matter of "The Alien Act" and In the matter of Chung-Gon , 6th Dec.,1900, then why are he and Mary required to register as aliens?
Her guess is that the letter was not accepted as sufficient evidence, or perhaps became insufficient with the advent of WWI.
