The original official minute book kept by the organization, Hong Kong Fanlingerers, established at St. Andrews in 1951. The founding Taipan (Powerful businessman formerly a foreigner living and operating in Hong King or China) was Alexander Mackenzie, Captain, Royal Hong Kong Golf Club, who was blinded by the Japanese when they overran Hong Kong in 1941. He was the first to leave the colony after liberation. The organization was subscribed at the Cross Keys St. Andrews by the following founding members. RM Henderson, DJ Gilmore, EJ Curran, John Fleming, A. Mackenzie, TL Christie, RH Hood, AB Purves, N. Kay, WJS Key, ARH Phillips, and Robert Young, and signed by all of them, “as an association of members and friends of the Royal Hong Kong Golf club, formed for the purpose of golf and good fellowship everywhere, and in memory of happy days at Fanling, with surplus funds to be donated to the institution for War blinded”. The minute book records each annual meeting from 1951 to 1979. It appears that Mackenzie died thereafter, and there is no record as to the fate of the organization after this date. Each annual meeting was held at a different Scottish golf course and club, with mostly 8x10” b&w photos of the elegantly dressed members attending, along with the complete financial records of each meeting and tournament. Many of the members have signed in at meetings. Some of the courses included Gullane, West Sussex, with most held at Kilspindle, East Lothian, and a joint meeting with the China Golfing Society at Pulborough, Also included are the printed annual reports issued each year, and approximately 50 photographs of their various activities, all neatly captioned with typewritten legends. A printed offprint by member Henry Longhurst describes the history of the organization in a tipped in article. The book may have been put together by Robert Young of Edinborough who was the Hon. Secretary of the Club. The ledger book is quarter bound in leather, 8x13”, and 2” thick and holds approximately 250 pages, plus tipped in objects and ephemera.
