Hi,

I am currently looking into researching my fathers history, any help would be appreciated and helpful.
My father has since passed he lived with us and I grew up knowing him, I know little about him as to where he was from specifically in Aden

I knew his name was anwar hasson zide apparently from Al mualla, he sailed to the UK in the late 1940's to early 50's.
I would like to learn more about him as in being able to obtain documents, registers or trace family members.
interested to learn more about the surname

inshaAllah

Hello Billy's home.

Welcome to Expat.com!

The Looking for section (Missing people) in the Yemen classifieds could help. You can post an advert there.

Thank you,
