Lim Teck Kim family cluster revisited (Bukit Brown)

Lim Teck Kim was born in Kinmen and passed away on 28 June 1938 at the age of 55, leaving behind 11 sons and 13 daughters. Lim Teck Kim established the Lim Hoe Chiang Co. , a General Store which marketed the "Global Brand" coffee and W.D & H.O Wills of Bristol and London "Flag Brand" cigarettes at 250 Tanjong Pagar Road. Lim Teck Kim also pioneered Singapore's first amusement park, "Old World (1921) which was later renamed "Happy Valley".

I recently encountered more pictures and ephemeral made available online by his descendants. The first one i am sharing is the family photograph of Lim Teck Kim, proprietor of Lim Hoe Chiang and Happy Valley Amusement Park, in front of his Pasir Panjang villa. Should be about mid-1920s to mid-1930s. Lim Teck Kim is in the dark suit at the center of the photograph. To Lim Teck Kim’s left is his mother, and on his right is his wife, Ho Ah Moy. Immediately behind Lim Teck Kim is his eldest daughter, Lim Kim Neo. To Lim Kim Neo’s right (behind Ho Ah Moy’s left shoulder) is Lim Teck Kim’s second daughter, Lim Kim Eng. Behind the balustrade on the far left of the group and next to the pillar is Lim Kim Choo, the fifth daughter of Lim Teck Kim. Lim Kim Choo is dressed in a light checkered baju. The second man seated in the front row on the left carrying the baby is Teo Cheng Moh, husband of Lim Kim Eng. To Teo Cheng Moh’s left and also in a light coloured suit is Chia Boon Thiam, husband of Lim Kim Neo. On the far right of the photograph seated at the extreme right of the front row is Lim Cheng Hai, son of Lim Teck Kim.
