published 15 years after the last dynasty - ie 1911 plus 15 years = 1926.
I have been given some books that my Grandfather had from early 20th century. Though I am not sure why he would have a Toisan book.
Does anyone know anything about this school?

Thank you for the websites. I can read the second one as it is in English. I asked someone who came from Taishan, and he said it was a small market place for his even smaller village. It records a lot of names of overseas people who donated money to the school. There are also english advertisments: Po Sang Tong, Sai War Market, Toyshan, Canton China; Tuck Gee, Samhop, Toysan, ; Kwong Tug Wing, Sam Hop, Hoy Sun; Hip Loong, Sam-hop; Hung On Tai, 104 Jervois St, Hong Kong, China; Yin Dai Tong, Sum Hop
