I believe I may have relatives named Chin or Chinn in New York. My grandfather's name was Chin Kwei Hin A.K.A. Harold Chinn. In 1905 my uncle Albert Alvin Chinn was born at the same address as Howard Allen Chinn, born 1906. Howard Allen's mother's maden name was Ethel (Whinton) Chinn. Do you have any N.Y. addresses for your chinese ancestor?
: I am searching for my maternal grandfather. His
: birth name was Allan Chin, born 1/26/20 in NY. He
: changed his surname to Young in his twenties. I don't
: know if he ever changed it back to Chin. He is primarily
: Chinese, although his grandmother was of Irish decent.
: Her name was Mary Todd. He is believed to be alive,
: and he may still be living in NY. My mother has not
: seen him since she was an infant and I have no other
: details to go by. Please contact me if you have
: any information! Thank you.
