content: Julio Saranza was born on July 4, 1907 in Ando, Bohol, Philippines. Records of Saranza's departure from the Philippines could not be located. A Honolulu passenger and crew list documented Saranza's departure from Hong Kong aboard the S. S. Tenyo Maru on February 15, 1919.  The ship arrived in Honolulu, Hawai'i on March 8, 1919, after a twenty-day journey. It is very likely that Saranza went to Hawai;i seeking work in the sugar plantations. He left Hawai'i on August 10, 1921, aboard the S. S. Maui, which carried individuals from various ethnic backgrounds. Standing at five feet and three inches tall and weighing one hundred and twenty-five pounds he lived in Sacramento, California according to Saranza's World War II draft card dated 1942.
