Hi Amanda:

I'm replying here (received your pm) because it's easier for me to "keep everything in one place."

Sorry for misleading you...it looks like the 1919 shipping list was Arthur passing through America? Final destination is "England" . So, perhaps he was visiting his sister who lived in England?

It is mid-day here and I cannot look now but I will look tonight for additional clues.
