I am trying to trace my partner's family.
His full name is KING CHEUNG WAN . His mother's surname was LAM and he left Hong Kong in 1984. He came from Fanling.
The below are believed to be his brothers in Hong Kong and their names are:
Wan Chau Kuen
Wan Chi Hung
Wan Ming Kit
Any help would be very much appreciated.
