Has anyone heard of an old china man in the Philadelphia PA area name Lau Tsai Fat or Lau Tsiu Yat. He was my Sifu Allan Ondash's & Mark Sidel's teacher. He passed away in the late 70's or early 80's. He used to teach Hung-gar in the basement of an building across from an arcade.

Why don't you post a clip of what you practice? We could probably narrow that down for you much faster.

There possibly be different spellings for his name
Lau Sai Fat
Lau Tzu Fat
Lao Si Yat
etc.
depending on the Chinese dialect from where he grew up
I do know he had a large scar on his leg from a Japanese officer's sword during the cultural revolution he saved his mother and sister from being raped by the Japanese and he killed about 5 or 6 of them.

Well I tried using ancestry.com to help but that just steered me in the wrong direction. Yeah I agree with you it does not make any sense to travel back and forth like that. I gonna try something else.

Ancestry.com...I guess it's worth a try!
So, I'm sure there are proper schools in the Philadelphia area, is that what you are looking in to now?
Best,
Michael
