My Great Aunt, Clara Main was married to a man named Harold Seth in 1934 or 1935.They lived in Hong Kong, in the hills above Deep Water Bay, in a house called "Deepdene".The Seth family in question was of Armenian extraction, though her husband had been born and educated in England.He was older than her, and died in 1938, his health was not good.His brother, Henry Seth and Henry's daughter (Mary?) were captured by the Japanese and interred in one of their camps during WW2.Henry and Mary were quite heroic and helped a good many people to survive this ordeal.There is currently an apartment complex called "Deepdene" in Deep Water Bay.It, too, hangs precariously close to the edge of the road, just as the Seth house clung to it's driveway.
