Basha-Baalbak and Srour-Zahle
My great grandfather was Najeeb Basha and his father was Tanuis Basha.Both immigrated around the 1800's from Baalbak.I have a family tree that was passed down.Tanuis is son of Mrs Juyus Lusiya who was a child of Hajj Elias Basha.
My great grandmother came to the US in 1892.Her name was Najeeby Srour.Her father was Habeeb Srour and her mother was Almas Belish.They came from Zahle.It was told to me that Habeeb came to enter his arrak drink in the Chicago World's Fair and won 1st prize.There is supposed to be a plaque still in Zahle.Does anyone know of these families? Thank you for responding.
