We’re collecting documents that help us explore and understand our Gom Benn (甘边村) heritage: newsletters, photos, immigration records, letters, drawings, paintings and more.

Our documents include the Voice of Gom Benn newsletters.

Dr. Laura Ng, an anthropology instructor at Grinnell College, has shared her dissertation on An Archaeology of Chinese Transnationalism, which explores the links between Gom Benn’s Wo Hing Village, and the Chinatowns in Riverside and San Bernardino, Calif.
