Is it true that most of the original settlers in the Big North American China-towns come from this particular part of GD province?
In fact, a friend of mines' Bo-bo is a 70+ Y.O. Toishan Grand Dame who's lived in Vancouver China town for over 50 years and who does NOT speak a word of English, nor have been anywhere outside of her immediate surroundings all that time. She never even became a Canadian citizen!
She was married off in China at 17 YO, shipped over to Vancouver by her husband, gave birth to and raised a whole family and is content to just live out her life in her own little world; don't know whether I'm in awe of her, pity her or ???
