Trip to Egypt

[Elanter]

I've just come across some scant information about a William Hollylee who was a passenger on the Suwa Maru ship bound for Japan via Port Said in 1927. I don't know if this was a holiday trip or if he was travelling for any other reason. His occupation is mention as 15/19 Hussars. I'd like to find out if he was travelling alone or if he had any family with him. Egypt seems an unusual place to emigrate to.

I'm pretty sure I found this information online but don't remember where. I would be grateful for any help.

Thanks

Hi Elanter,

Do you find it Findmypast? as there are passenger lists for the Suwa Maru
dating 1915-1940.

I think you might be right, unfortunately I'm not registered with them anymore. I'll have to buy some credits.

Thanks for the info.
