Could the photographer be "A HING" rather than King?  A chinese name, probably what the chinese characters say (not quite as exciting as "All the nice girls love a sailor"!!)

Hi Prue,

Kind of unusual to find a Chinese businessman using an initial, maybe? Didn't/don't they use a full name like Wing Wong or Ping Bao, AND, the family name comes first in Chinese anyway. Also, having perused page after page after page after page after page after....Sorry, got kind of carried away there...<ahem> as I was saying having looked at a lot of the name King in census page handwriting, I think it's "King".

China ;D ;D ;D
