Moon Tung WONG
1927 and 1929 from Toisan, China
Moon Tung Wong entered San Francisco as a paper son. When someone reported his false papers, he was removed from Francisco Middle School, held at Angel Island for a month, and deported. He re-entered under another paper son name and went straight to Chicago. Then he and his family moved to Los Angeles where they opened a laundry business.
