En Kong Wung 1930 and 1940 Census
I found this census, 1930 and 1940, for the En Kong Wung Family that includes EnKong, Alicia, Jean, Edwin, and Clayton.

Edwin Wung, Son of En Kong Wung
I found some things on Ancestry.com of my Uncle… Uncle Ed. He was my mother’s brother and died at the young age of 39. He went to Michigan State and became a Veterinarian, same as my brother Douglas. He was married to Irene and had a son, Randall.
Here is Uncle Ed in his Michigan State Yearbook
I found other pics of him at the University of Hawaii:

Where You Wen Grad?

Oh, high school. Is there any other time in our lives for which we’re so nostalgic, and yet so glad is over? Luckily (or embarrassingly), yearbooks are there to record the experience—the homecoming dances, the awkward fashions, the jocks, nerds and babes. Your yearbook is probably safely stashed in a closet somewhere, but someone else has a copy, too: the Hawaii State Library. Its collection includes just about every high school throughout the Islands, and dates back as far as 1914. We combed through the stacks to find what’s changed about the local high school experience over the years, and what’s stayed exactly the same.
Special thanks to the Hawaii State Library staff, who were a great help in collecting all these images. If you’re interested in exploring more old yearbooks, the entire collection is available to the public in the Hawaii and Pacific Section of the Hawaii State Library (478 S. King Street, 586-3535, librarieshawaii.org.)
1914 – Hilo H.S.

Early 20th Century yearbooks often read like literary journals, with sections for poetry, essays and jokes. Sample quip from 1921: Kanichi F: “There’s something so dove-like about her.” Bud Y.: “Yes, she’s pigeon-toed.”
1927 Punahou ROTC
The 1951 Castle High School yearbook asked seniors to name the career they were planning to pursue. Among the answers: telephone operator, stenographer, undertaker, deep sea fisherman, deep sea fisherman’s wife, society playboy, professional hobo.
1963 McKinley Driver’s Ed
1986 Moanalua Rally
1941 Punahou Football
1970 Waipahu Baseball
Six decades before Title IX, girls were excited to play sports. The 1914 Hilo high school girls’ basketball program fielded 19 members, almost triple the size of the boys’ team that year.

1986 Radford Homecoming
Every generation has its own style innovations. Radford ’97’s yearbook devoted a spread to a new craze sweeping the campus—piercings and tattoos—with multiple photos of students sticking out their tongues to show off the barbells running through them.
