The world, my home

Elise, my brother-in-law's cousin, is here on a visit. They share the same Grandfather. Their Grandfather married 3 women. The first wife (from China) was the Mother of Elise' Father, the second wife (from Malacca, Malaysia) was the Mother of my Brother-in-law's Mother, the third wife was also from Malacca. Elise is here to trace the members of her extended family in Malaysia.

Elise' family migrated from China to Vietnam and subsequently to France. She is now a French citizen and currently residing in Xiamen, China.
