A Barkett here!!My name is Michael Barkett and I live in Tulsa, Oklahoma, USA.I am told that my great grandparents came from Jdeidet Marjeyoun in Lebanon in the early 1900's.Their names were Wazna and Falleh or Falleh."Barkett" is Americanized from either Barakat or Baraket.I am looking for any information (including the meaning of the name) of the history of the Barakat or Baraket family in Lebanon.By the way, there are many Barketts in Oklahoma and Kansas, especially Wichita.
