Accompanied by his wife Sa'adia (isn't that a man's name? or is it pronounced differently?) and son Daoud. They left from Aden in January of 1929 on the way to Palestine. I wonder what happened to Aaron and his family, it's not that long ago and shouldn't be THAT difficult to trace. Why is he Dawood and his son Daoud, is that a different name? All that land from Aden to Palestine was under British Mandate/Protectorate then, so all they needed was one permit to travel all that distance.
Anyway, Aaron's permit Is up for auction. For 175 dollars it's yours.

What prompted some Teimani Jews to leave their land, where they had been for 2500 years, and go up to Eretz Yisroel?
a burning desire to go to the holy hand, probably some persecution as well....
Sadia pronounced differently.
It is customary in Sepharadic and Yeminite communities to name your son after a living person; sometimes after yourself...
