Thank you for your input, it was so helpful!I am just beginning to grasp the concept of who my ancestors were and how the got from Lebanon to Ellis Island.So difficult to obtain records from Lebanon like a birth record.Probably many were destroyed over the years.But I do have a follow-up question on the name Rose.
We found her name listed as Rose as translated to us from a Lebanese Census done in the mid-1950's and so if he told us Rose, then could it be he was reading the Arabic translation for the name Rose?Is this confusing or am I close to being correct?I guess I should have it translated again by someone else and have him tell me exactly in Arabic what is on the paper.My mom had the 1st translation done and all she cared about was getting the English information.
Thank you so much,
Laurette
