Hey,
I just wanted to know that my great grandad was on this ship and i think that he may be one of these people. Do you know the names of any of these people. My grandad was called Mohib Ullah. Many thanks for uploading this photograph.

Hi Rahida, thanks for your comment, it's great to think that your grandad may be in this photo - do you have any more photos or memories of him? You could upload them to the site to be shared with others.
I'm afraid I don't have any names for the individuals in this photo but perhaps the uploader does.
Thanks for your comment!
