Notes, work in progress

McNair, CIM

  1. McNair, Malcolm
    • Born 1860 or 1861
    • Sailed for China with the CIM on the SS Massilia on Thursday 1 Nov 1888; accompanied by 3 other recruits. Arrived 15 December 1888 (China's Millions, "CM"), though the "register" shows 1 December 1888.
    • 1889, left along with the Sha-si and Shih-sheo stations by the departure of Thomas James to Sichuan, the Gulstons (Frederick and Mary) having already left for Hankow. Reported in CM in August 1889.
    • Returned, possibly to a posting in Glasgow, in the later part of 1891; this is apparent as the station listing state that Sha-si and Shih-sheo stations were left empty at that time (see personal file Malcolm-McNair_Hunan-Province_Nov1888-to-1891(2).tif).
