This is the ancestor of Tay Liang Chng, the young girl, also my grandma.



The stone pillar in front of the house is actually a flag pole. An imperial official "kuan" lived here.

Only an imperial official is allowed to have the flag pole.

The young teenage girl was a descendant of the imperial official.


It all began about 70 years ago, when a young teenage girl accompanied her mother to a distant island in Nanyang.

That island is now called Singapore

This is the house where she lived in before leaving home.
