Destruction of the village during the War period led to the loss of the Ng's Second Branch clansmen
Ng Sui Mo was born before World War II in Shek Ku Lung Village where his grandfather owned a few ancestral houses. The village had six families who belonged to Ng Clan’s second branch in Nga Tsin Wai. Four of these families belonged to Ng Sui Mo’s uncles who all had close relationships and visited one and other during festivals. When he was small, Ng Sui Mo did not really understand such closeness as he did not realise everyone’s common ancestry. During the Japanese occupation of 1941 to 1945, Shek Ku Lung villagers were resettled by the authorities to old tenement buildings in Tam Kung Road that had no doors or windows. Eventually, Ng Sui Mo’s family moved into Nga Tsin Wai. Thereafter, the family’s second branch clansmen were scattered everywhere. After the war, Ng Sui Mo’s mother received compensation for her Shek Ku Lung Village ancestral house from the British Colonial Government. As Ng Sui Mo and his brother were still small at this time, they did not participate in any negotiations. The second branch members used to meet up for ancestral worship, but since everyone has become so scattered, they now seldom meet and come together to pay their respects to their ancestors.
