Dentist.
DDS (Illio.) June 4, 1912, Editor of the Dental Department of Illio [Yearbook].
b.1880 - d. December 27, 1948 (died suddenly at Botanical Garden in the morning), bur. Hong Kong Cemetery, Happy Valley. Siblings: 1. Dr. A.E. Asger, Honorary Secretary, Craigengower Club 1900s; creator of the Hong Kong Cricket League 1903; resided in Scotland 1948. 2. sister [s.n.], resided in Hong Kong 1948.

[1] Asger sounds Danish and Mehdy Arabic.
[2] The Dental Register 1941 is not available; it is unknown whether or not it actually exists.
[3] The first dental surgeons registered with the government following the enactment of the Dentistry Ordinance 1914: Mehdy Edward Asger, Arthur de Carvalho, Chaun Moon Hung 周夢熊, Edward Evan Jones, Frederick Howard Kew, Irvin Whiteley Kew, George Wiliam McKean, and Joseph Whittlesey Noble.
[4] The Government Civil Hospital introduced the Dental Department on July 4, 1917 and had Asger and Frederic Edward Kew, who was also an Eurasian, as visiting dental surgeon to attend three days in a week. The operating days were cut back to two in a week from 1918. Writings about the dental department in government reports stopped from 1922. It is unclear if someone decided not to write a bout it anymore, or it no longer existed after 1921.

[The July 25, 1937 issue of the Straits Times carried this strangest story about Aragaki:
Ideal Diplomat Selection by Blood Test in Japan; Stubbornness is a Virtue
To the stringent academic and physical requirements for prospective members of Japan's diplomatic service may be added the prerequisite that they should be possessors of “O”-type blood.
That this should be one of the qualifications of future officials who will deal with the nation's foreign affairs was recommended today to Mr. Koki Hirota, Foreign Minister, by Dr. Tsunemesa Aragaki, the Gaimusho's own physician.
A study of the blood-types of world leaders has shown, according to Dr. Aragaki, that the “O”-type predominates. Other blood-types are A. B. and AB. Up to now, the only interest in such matters was shown by hospitals in preparing lists of potential blood-donors for transfusion cases.
Cool in Emergency
The possessors of “O”-type blood, Dr. Aragaki contends, are more suited to be diplomats because they are cool in emergencies, stubborn, not easily influenced by people, strong-willed, determined and yet gentle.
Dr. Aragaki refused to comment on the possibility that all possessors of “O”-type blood seeking admission to the Foreign Service might “flunk” academic and physical tests.]

Lockhead, Patrick Manson, James Stockwell, and Richard Young.]
[Adams was said to have held the position of Colonial Surgeon, but I found no other references to confirm this. The only thing I could find that linked him to the top medical office in Hong Kong was that he lived next door to Philip Bernard Chenery Ayres, Hong Kong's last Colonial Surgeon (1873-1897, the position was renamed Principal Civil Medical Officer following Ayres' retirement). Ayres lived in a house called Dinder, #13 Caine Road.]
[1] Adams had his named changed to William Stanley Stanley-Adams while sojourning in Hong Kong, for unknown reason(s).
[2] Adams married Susan (Sussy) Blanche Mary Hugo (b. April 11, 1848, Jersey, Channel Islands - d. Jan 28, 1940, Heston, Middlesex) at St. John's Cathedral in Hong Kong in 1867. Hugo was the daughter of Harper Richard Hugo and Blanche Leggatt. Adams and Hugo had eight children: Hilda Agneta Bertha Stanley-Adams, Blanche J. Adams, Maude Beatrice Stanley-Adams, Stanley Hugo Stanley-Adams, Mabel Gertrude Adams, Percy Hugo Adams, Ethel Constance Adams, and Herbert Hugo St. Leger Stanley-Adams. They were all born in Hong Kong where the family lived in a house named Forest Lodge at #11 Caine Road. Julia Hugo, Susan's sister, lived with the family in 1885. Her husband, William Kaye, worked for the Chartered Bank of India, Australia and China in Hong Kong and the Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporation in London.
