​An online treasure trove in fond tribute to the family of Albert T. Quon & Lily C.C. Ho


How the Quons Came to the US

I told the story for the Southern California Genealogical Society's 2022 Jamboree conference.
My presentation focuses on Quon Mane, uncle of Albert T. Quon. Albert is not mentioned by name, but is referenced as one of Quon Mane's nephews, and many images of young Albert appear.

Albert's own father died relatively young (in his 40s), but we assume that much of his story parallels that of Quon Mane. They were only about a year apart in age, and the #4 and #5 brothers of their family.
