Chin Ting/Chan Moon-ting/James Chin Ting In 1907 he moved to Wellington to look after his fellow Sun Gai villager Chan Fook-on's store Yee Chong Wing in Manners Street while Chan Fook-on was suffering an illness. After Chan Fook-on died in 1908 he took over Yee Chong Wing, changing its name to Te Aro Seed Company in the 1930s. www.tungjung.org.nz/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=24&Itemid=31 |

An entry was effected through the adjoining premises of Stewart & Co., and the thief forced a window open. The shop of a Chinaman named Yee Chong Wing, a grocer and fruiterer, at the oorner of Herbert and Manners streets, was entered by three men last night. At about 11 o dock the front door was broken open, but as the Chinaman (who slept in the back) was awakened and disturbed them, the intruders decamped.
