  1. Found a reference that Maria August Townsend was owner of the Onderneming "Oedjoeng Karang". The Oedjong Karang is a river not to far from Padang.

  3. Dear Geoff and Thomas,

    That is right, Maria Augusta Townsend owned the onderneming "Oedjoeng Karang". After she died, her daughter, Cecilia Margaretha Sadee became owner of Oedjoen Karang. This Cecilia is the sister of my grandmother, Antoinette Henriette Sadee, born 22-08-189 and died 13-04-1987 in The Hague, the Netherlands. We are really interested in the parents of Clementina Cecilia Sohpia Chew, daughter of Dr John Chew and Isabelle Rachel Stewart. If you have any more information, please would you be so kind as to let us know? My e-mail adress is: renee.hoogers@chello.nl. Thank you so much also on behalf of my two sisters.

    Kind regards

    Renée
