Both son Robin and friend Gill visited Prince of Wales Cemetery in Penang looking for Daniel Caldwell (1788-1828). Robin found his name in the register but no or few graves remained. It was the original colonial cemetery and was bombed by the Japanese during WWII.<\/em><\/p>

Hi, I have some of those photos. I think I told you the husband of Anna Leowin of King and I fame is buried there too. I couldn\u2019t find Daniel on any of the records at the cemetery so it is good that he found the evidence in an archive. I do hope they keep the cemetery. I am concerned that they might build over it as it is prime land and looking at Robin\u2019s photos it hasn\u2019t been refurbished since we were there 5 years ago.Gill<\/p>

Hi Gill,<\/div>

Yes, I’d forgotten you went there. I lost a lot of genealogical info back then when my inbox simply disappeared. Very frustrating. The fate of the Hong Kong Cemetery seems equally tenuous. Again, on prime land in the heart of the city. Daniel’s plot is right next to the highway, apparently.<\/p><\/div>

The family’s loss of Daniel at age 39 must have been devastating. My guess is that they packed up and went to Singapore forthwith, hoping for better opportunity. Possibly the family had relatives (Uncle Richard Caldwell?) or friends there. As far as we know, when Daniel Caldwell died in Penang there were 4 children — Mary Ann (15), Henry Charles (14) Daniel (12) and Sarah Elizabeth (10).<\/p><\/div>
