The tomb of Madam Goh Choon Neo was one of the many we were looking for. The request for the tomb of Madam Goh Choon Neo was a request from G.T. Lye way back in 2024 when he asked Raymond Goh to help find Madam Goh Choon Neo. The information provided - her sons are Charlie Teo Beng Siang, Georgie Teo Beng Hai and and daughter, Molly Teo. She passed away on March 1967. We been searching since that time based on the clue provided that it is along Kheam Hock Road and up hill. Finally today, through sheer luck we found it. The name all matches.

From the tomb of Madam Lee Tak Poh Neo,  

Madam Lee Tak Poh Neo passed away at the age of 53 on 3 April 1923. She is the wife of Mr. Goh Ching Moh. Listed on the tomb are the names of her children;

Sons: Goh Sin Poh, Goh Sin Wee
Daughters: Goh Guan Choon Neo, Goh Hong Neo, Goh Geok Neo, Goh Lian Neo

What i assume is that Goh Guan Choon Neo and Goh Choon Neo are the same person from the connection of the son-in-law and Grandson. 

Father: Goh Ching Moh / Goh Cheng Moh 

Goh Ching Moh worked for Mansfield and Co., the local agents of the Blue Funnel Line for nearly fifty years  before retiring in 1929. 

Son: Teo Beng Siang 

From what i can gather, Teo Beng Siang also worked for Mansfield and Co. He was the President of the Mansfield Local Employees' Union (1962). When the Straits Steamship Labour Organisation (SSLO) took over the Mansfield Company in July, 1975 there was an article where Me. Teo Beng Siang (the 61 years in 1981) was the union head from 1958 and 1966 and then a director of a property firm.

Coronet B.P.

Coronet Badminton Party - when i search for this, i found that Teo Beng Siang, Teo Beng Hai, Guinea Goh, Sonny Victor Goh (possibly Sunny Goh) have been closely associated with this Badminton Party in the 1950's. Teo Beng Hai was its Hon. Auditor in 1955.
