Felix Roussel
« on: Saturday 12 May 18 15:00 BST (UK) »
I have an old Prayer Book inside I found a Troop Berthing Card with the passengers Deck, Section and Mess Table written on it.

The ship was used to evacuate Singapore in 1942.

I know it a very long shot but is there any way of finding who the owner was.

Is the ship called the Felix Roussel?

Hi,
I doubt if you could find the owner or a descendant without a name.  The only thing I did see was that the Bell and other pieces from the ship are in a Museum in Holland. I suppose if you gave it to them someone one day may see it.

(I did see a Felix Roussel from Louisiana joined the US Navy in 1917.)
