The Very Reverend Joseph Allen, Esteemed Members
of the Parish Council and all Faithful Parishioners
of
St. Anthony's Orthodox Church, Bergenfield,
NJ:
Grace and peace to you in the Name of our Lord and Saviour,
Jesus
Christ.
Thirty-five
years
ago, by the grace of God and with the faith and
determination
of your founding fathers,
the small parish in Bergenfield was
established
under the patronage
of St. Anthony the Great. This venerable
monastic of the Orthodox East also established
a small community around
himself,
which in time became hundreds,
if not thousands.
Today, after
thirty-five
years of dedicated service,
your community has also grown and
flourished,
so that you are one of the leading parishes in this Archdiocese.
Your spiritual
father,
the Very Reverend
Joseph Allen and many of the
devoted faithful of your community have been an inspiration
to the growth
and vision of St. Anthony's.
We are indeed proud of your accomplishments
and your leadership
in this Archdiocese
and the community at large. We
pray that God will enable you to maintain that vision by which you have
lived these thirty five years. Your children and their children will bless all
your efforts
to keep your church a living community in the Lord Jesus
Christ.
As the neighbors
that you are, you are very dear to me. So with the
Apostle Paul, I will say to you: "My brethern
• • • be of good comfort, be of
one min , live in peace, and the God of love and peace will be with you.
ureet one another with a holy kiss." (II Cor. 13: 11-12)

Dear Friends of St. Anthony:
February 3, 1991
St. Anthony was formed through •ne 111sion
and needs of
seven familes to becomeone of the first Pan Orthodox parishes
In the United States. Today, thirty-five years later, we are much
larger In size and greater in diversity. Yet through the years, we
havekeptour true family unity, and preserved our ethnic
rustoms and rultural heritage, whether it be Russian, Greek,
Arabic,Serbian or Ukrainian. We have become an example of a
suocesstuf,Orthodox parish in America, with a blending of
backgrounds,
with a single, most important purpose - to gather
for the worship of Christ, our Lord.
Allrllxleenyearsas parishioners of St. Anthony, my family and I have many fond memories.

* Departed this life
'And many nations shall come and say,
come and let us go up to the mountain of the
Lord and to the house of Jacob, and He will
teach us of His ways and we will walk in His
paths.'
Micah 4:2
'.Early in 1956, a group of seven men
met and resolved to form an Orthodox
Church whose members would be drawn
from Orthodox families of all national origins,
using the English language in the services.
The seven men were: Mitchell Moore,
Theodore Maloof, Abraham G. Debs, George
M. Shamyer, Alex Sahadi, Edward Deeb and
George A. Hatab. It was named St. Anthony's
Eastern
Orthodox
Catholic
Church.
Metropolitan Antony Bashir of the Antiochian
Orthodox Catholic Archdiocese chartered the
new Church and it was duly incorporated on
July 3, 1956.
'The Reverend James Mitchell, Rector,
and the Vestry of St. Paul's Episcopal Church
in Englewood, N.J. allowed the small group
the use of St. Paul's Chapel and schoolrooms

>rrn1,ned in •lie
U.S.), Fr. Daniel Hubiak, Fr. John Psillas, and
Fr. Stephen Lyashevsky. It was our good
fortune that Fr. Lyashevsky was available to
serve the church until we could find a full-time
priest more suitable to our particular needs.
In the Spring of 1957, Sub· Deacon Gabriel
Ashie was sent by Metropolitan Bashir to
assist Fr. Lyashevsky and our Parish.
'The good news of the Church spread
quickly, attracting a flow of families of all
national origins. It was felt that an Englishspeaking parish such as St. Anthony's would
assure their children's religious education.
The adults themselves also realized they
were absorbing more from the English
service.
With these encouraging developments,
the Church body gathered strength in many
directions. The Board of Trustees elected
Mitchell Moore its first President. The Church
School was formed and grew with Peter
�Rozakis as its first SuperinteBn~enth
A L:~~~~
Guild was formed and
anc. e
became its first president. A ch~1r Yt'.ases
tablished, with Zeran Milkovich as its director.
'With the growth of the Church:s
membership we overcrowded St. Paul s
facilities and' on December 1, 1_
957, the move
was made to the Masonic Lo~ge _on
PalisadesAvenue in Englewo~?·At_th1spoint,
there were thirty active families m regular
attendance. Fr. Lyashevsky,for the most pa~.
continued serving on Sundays at the Mas~mc
Hall until Deacon Gabriel Ashie was ordained
in September of 1958 a~d becam~ our fulltime Priest. This was a time of rapid growth,
spiritual revelation and joy in th0 growth of
the movement. At the Masoni~ Lodge, we
were permitted use of the premises on Sunday and Wednesdays only. It was therefor~,
necessary to have a portable lconostas1s
which had to be put up and taken down every
Sunday,along with the folding chairs.
Classes in the Faith were held by Fr.
Ashie to explain the dogma, doctrine, customs and traditions of the Faith. Parishioners,
eager to learn of the faith into which they
were born or married, attended the Wednesday night discussions en masse.These
classes, and the use of English in our
services, were instrumental in our becoming
a participating congregation, instead of an
observing one, as intended by our Founding
Fathers. Many parishioners gave their first
confession at St. Anthony's. But first, the 'lost'
generation in America had to be educated
that confession was in the Orthodox tradition
and practiced in the Old World.
In trying to be considerate of some of
the ethnic customs, however, (a quality which
gives St. Anthony's its uniqueness) some
problems had to be overcome. As an example, when the Baptismal Font was to be
purchased, consideration had to be made for
those who immerse the infant from side to
side and those who immerse vertically hence, the size of our Baptismal Font ... one
of many interesting memories.
:Jr.
Ashia and paris~ioners became
active in local affairs, aff?rdmg St. Anthony s
the opportunity to make its pre~ence known.
The inclusion of Orthodoxy in the FourDenominational Chapel at
Englewood
Hospital exists in large part through Fr.
Ashia's work and solicitation.
In
1
1961,
two
par ~els
of
land,
approximating one acre, were acquired on
the border of Bergenfield and Tenafly, and the
architectural firm of Harsen and Johns was
retained to draw up the plans for St.
Anthony's church building.
was celebrated by Metropolitan Antony and
all the local Orthodox clergy. Being the first
Pan-Orthodox Church in America, CBS televised this occasion on their Sunday morning
'Lamp Unto My Feet' program.
'lJy 1963, there were one hundred nine
families as members of the parish. The desire
to have its own Church building prompted the
Church body to work towards that goal and
consequently they entered into contract for
the construction of the new church. When the
new church building was being designed, it
was hoped to blend Byzantine tradition with
the New World. As a further aid to being a
participating church, it was decided to have
an open lconostasis with no curtain and/or
closed doors.
In 1965, Fr. Ashia feeling that his work
at St. Anthony's was nearing completion, left
us to start another English-speaking PanOrthodox Church in Callfomia. Fr. Michael
Irwin became our next Priest. Since Fr.
Irwin's background was in education, our
Church School went through some changes.
We also became involved in a program
entitled, 'Living Room Dialogues' with
churchgoers of other denominations. This afforded us the opportunity to bring the knowledge of Christian Orthodoxy to many people
who had had no previous knowledge of our
Faith. After two years, Fr. Michael Irwin left
us to serve in the missionary field in Alaska
On April 18, 1964, our new church building was dedicated and the first Divine Liturgy

Ourthird and present priest, Fr. Joseph
Allen came to us in 1967, while still studying
at st'. Vladimir's Theological Seminary. With
Fr. Allen's guidance, the Church School,
Choir and Youth Group have become very
active in Archdiocese regional and national
events. Fr. Allen is also a leader of the Clergy
of North Bergen County, N.J. and Rockland
County,N.Y.
In August, 1976, groundwas broken for
our new FellowshipHall, which is adjacent to
the Church. The building was consecrated
and dedicated by Metropolitan Philip Saliba
in January, 1977, at which time Fr. Allen was
elevated to Archpriest. In 1983 he was
appointedVicar Generalof the Antiochian Orthodox Archodiocese. In 1983 he was ap-
pointed National Chaplain of the Order of St.
Ignatius.
Jl.tter teaching for may years at both
Holy Cross Seminary in Brookline, MA and at
St. Vladimir Seminary at Crestwood, New
York, Fr. Joe was appointed Associate
Professor of Pastoral Theology at St.
Vladimir on December 13, 1989. He
co-authored, with Metropol an Philip, "Out of
the Depths have I Cried" ·., 1979. Fr. Joe also
authored "Orthodox Synthe s" in 1981, "The
Ministryof the Church" in 1 c 86. In 1986 Fr.
Joe also compiled and edit d the writings of
Metropolitan Philip entitle " 9ed My Sheep."
His latest book on spiritu
direction and
counseling is due to be re e ed in May 1991
(St. Vladimir Seminary Pre...,'").It will be entitled "Inner Way: Eastern C ,ristian Spiritual
Direction." Among Fr. Joe' many accom-
plishments was co-editor of the "Word"
magazine, the official publication of the
Antiochian Archdiocese.
In 1989 we were saddened with the
falling asleep of our Khouriye, Joan Allen, as
, result of a protracted illness. We miss her
miling face, her talent, and the impact she
ad as a role model for all who knew her ...
specially for our young people who were
osest to her heart. As a tribute to her mem'Y, the Joan Allen Memorial Scholarship
..md was established to benefit high school
udents from St. Anthony seeking further ed,ation. The first recipients of this scholarship
1:;reChristianne Roumie and Joseph Allen in
ne 1990. Through this scholarship her
1luence will continue to be felt by those
,hose welfare was always uppermost in her
-n'nd.
In 1989 we embarked on a
Beautification Program which concentrated
on the Sanctuary, Narthex, and the Nave. Today. this program with ,ts lkons and dramatic
lighting is now complete.
Our liturgical Choir music continues to
be an integral part of our Church services.
The many ethnic backgrounds represented
among our parishioners are reflected in the
wide variety and styles of Orthodox traditional
music sung by the Choir ... Greek, Arabic,
Slavonic, Byzantine, Serbian, Bulgarian,
Roumanian.
!Festivals have come and gone, each
one more successful than the previous.
Besides their financial aspects, they have
served to bring the parishioners in closer
fellowship and harmony.
'There are many golden memories:
seeing Seminarians serve their apprenticeship at our altar and later become Priests;
seeing our children grow in the Church, marry
and come to Church as adult families, etc ...
and so the circle continues.
With God's help, we look to the future
with Faith and Hope, to keep that circle ever
growing and "living in peace and harmony
with one another."

Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/historical note</h4>
<p>The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America (AOCA), headquartered in Englewood, New Jersey, oversees seven dioceses with over 250 parishes in the United States and Canada. </p>
<p>The AOCA is one of 24 archdioceses of the Greek Orthodox Patriarchate of Antioch and All the East across the world. The editorial office for their publication <em>The Word</em> is in Brooklyn, New York. AOCA founded the periodical as an Arabic language publication in 1905, which ran for 16 volumes. The final issue of the Arabic <em>Al-Kalemat</em> appeared in 1933, and the English iteration <em>The Word</em> began anew in 1957.</p>
<p>The original copies of the periodical are housed at the Antiochian Heritage Library in Bolivar, Pennsylvania. The Antiochian Heritage Library was founded in 1987, and its collections focus on information about early Christianity, the theology of the Orthodox Church, and religious and cultural themes in Middle Eastern history. </p>
<h4>Scope/content note</h4>
<p>The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America Newspaper Collection includes both Arabic-language volumes of Al-Kalemat and English-language volumes of <em>The Word</em> (also called Al-Kalemat, Al Kalimat, Al Kalimah, and الكلمة), covering the years 1905-1993. The periodical focuses on current events and debates from an Antiochian Orthodox perspective. </p>
<p>The periodical is written and published by The Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America and continues to be published monthly excluding July and August. Some years and issues are not included in the collection, and there are some years that the publication did not run.<br /><br />The collection also includes various parish commemorative booklets from Antiochian Orthodox churches in different regions of the United States, including but not limited to, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, West Virginia, and New York.</p>
<p>The English-language volumes are located here on the KCLDS Archive's website. The Arabic-language volumes are located on the Khayrallah Center’s <a href="https://arabicsearch.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Arabic Newspapers database</a>.</p>

�What is the Southern Federation
and the Southern Federation Foundation?
The Southern Federation is an organization of heritage and culture. Its
members are Syrian-Lebanese Americans who promote American citizenship
and foster American ideals in all their actlvities. It is comprised of over 4,000
members in 49 cities who gather semi-annually in a city within its 16 state
territoiy, to pursue and foster good will among the members.
When the Southern Federation of Syrian-Lebanese American Clubs was
organized, its purpose was to devote itself to maintaining traditional fellowship,
to encourage local and regional educational, civic and charitable projects, and
to contribute to charitable causes without regard to race or creed.
The Southern Federation Foundation, Inc. is the charitable arm of the
Southern Federation. It is a non-profit organization chartered under the laws of
the State of Texas. The Foundation is a Section 501 (C)(3) approved Internal
Revenue Service entity, thereby allowing all contributions to the Foundation to
be fully tax deductible.
The Foundations purpose is to use its income and principal for literaiy and
charitable purposes which includes the Kahlil Gibran Scholarship program and
such other projects which may come into being.
Monies contributed to the Foundation are earmarked for distribution to three
main sources: the Scholarship Fund, the Charity Fund or the Cultural Fund.
These three sources are detailed elsewhere in this brochure. A list of the
contributors to each is herein provided.
Acknowledgement for contributions made to any fund within the Foundation
will appear in the annual Foundation booklet. Donations by indMduals or
organizations may be made to an existing fund, to establish a specific fund
(either annual or endowment), or for special designated projects.
Contributions to annual funds will be available for use in the fiscal year in
which they are made. Permanent or Endowment Funds will use on]y the interest
accrued for the stated purpose. Such can be accumulated to produce a
permanent fund for a specific purpose, or to achieve a desired level of total
contributions in an existing permanent fund or endowment.
The following classifications have been established and app]y to all funds
within the Foundation:

The Scholarship Program
Since the inception of the Scholarship Program in 1949, over 440 scholarships, totaling in excess of $347,850.00 have been given in the interest of higher
education. In the beginning, $1 :oofrom each Southern Federation convention
registration was directed for the Scholarship Fund and the Scholarship Committee worked to raise the additional funds needed. These monies have been
donated by the Southern Federation's affiliated clubs, individual members and
the Federation itself. In addition, scholarships are solicited from and given by
non Federation members interested in education and in our ethnic organization.
Scholarships are made available to worthy students seeki.ng higher education.
Applications are reviewed, approved and awarded at the sole discretion of the
Scholarship Director and Scholarship Committee. Past recipients have returned
to setve the organization in various capacities including that of President. The-y
have serviced society in the fields of law, medicine and business.
In 1983, the Scholarship Committee began hosting a reception at the
Federation's Annual Convention for all students applying for scholarships and
for the donors who make these scholarships possible.
The growth of the Scholarship Program indicates a need for steady, substantial
sources of scholarship money. A strong feeling of commitment ts planted with
each scholarship awarded. Contributions help students acquire the knowledge
and financial assistance they need to make meaningful contributions to society.
There are three prtmaiy ways to contribute to the Scholarship Fund and to
remember a loved one or commemorate a special occasion.
A "One Time Scholarship" requires a minimum $250.00 donation. The
donation bears the name of whomever the donor wishes and ts presented in the
year received. It is awarded under the guidelines of either the Scholarship Fund
or the Gift for Knowledge Fund whichever is specified by the donor.
A "Perpetual Scholarship" ts one where the contribution ts. mvested in an
interest bearing account. This individual endowment account remains intact
and only the accrued interest ts used. The scholarship is given under the
guidelines of the Scholarship Fund or the Gift for Knowledge Fund again as
specified by the donor. The scholarship bears the name of whomever the donor
wishes, year after year, without the need for further contribution. This gift keeps
on giving.
A "Gift for KnowledgeAwartl" ts one that is made available by the contributions
of many people. A contribution to this award may be given in memoty of, to speed
the recovety of, or to hopor a special occasion. No amount is to small.
Contributions are used to build the general endowment account, from which
on]y the interest ts used. This award ts given to desetving students, in vatying
amounts, as donations accumulate.

The Charity Program
During !Jie past 16 years, over $105,000 has been contributed to numerous
charities. This has greatly enhanced the success of the Charity Program. Funds
have been donated to hospitals, orphanages, bum centers, epileptic centers and
other health and welfare projects. In addition, a policy was instituted whereby
a contribution is made to a local charity in the city where the Southex:n
Federation hosts its annual convention. This policy was established in 1987
when the convention was held in San Antonio, Texas.
Under the guidance of the Charity Director, the Charity Committee reviews
charitable causes to determine the extent of financial assistance to be given. The
decision is at the discretion of the Director and Committee. They are generally
made aware of worthy causes through committee members or members of the
Southern Federation.
Donations to the Charity Fund may be given to celebrate the occasion of a
birthday or anniversary as well as in memory of relatives or friends. Contributions may also be made directly to specific projects established by the Charity
Committee.
Over the years, contributions have been made by the Southern Federation's
affiliated clubs, individual members and the Federation itself. Donations have
also been given by non-Federation members interested in the projects undertaken by the Committee.

�The Cultural Program
The Cultural Program consists of various projects established by the Committee which, to 'date, have been primarily for historical documentation. Over
$70,000 have been donated to these projects.
One project was the production of a ftlm which highlighted the accomplishments of Syrian Lebanese Americans who had immigrated to the Southern
portion of the United States. The ftlm reflected that their contributions had an
important impact on the development of the South.
The Barker Histoty Center located at the University of Texas at Austin, has
been designated to preseIVe the archival materials belonging to the Syrian
Lebanese Americans. This project should facilitate the development of an
appropriate exhibit of historical items for use by the Foundation and Federation.

Moses and Romey Family Papers
Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical note</h4>
<p>This collection represents three families who lived in Valdosta, Georgia, and Lake City, Florida. Ellis Moses came from Zahle in the Biqa’a Valley of modern Lebanon. His wife, Fannie Johns may have originated in the village of Wadi El Aarayech (وادي العرايش) as she later wrote to relatives in that town. Together, Ellis and Fannie had eight children. Bessie (7/1906-1928) born in Syria; Amelia (6/12/1912-1992 m. Castrinos); Sallie (8/1914-2012 m. Barnes); Noidrie (1/1916-1993); and Philip (1919-2009) all born in Valdosta, Georgia; Norman (1921-2005); Leo (1923-1992); and Helen (1926-2004 m. Bishop) all born in Lake City, Florida.</p>
<p>Ellis Moses arrived at Ellis Island on September 5, 1907, while Fannie and Bessie followed later on. By 1908, Ellis was settled in Valdosta, Georgia in a community of his countrymen and relatives who mainly hailed from the villages of Wadi El Aarayech (وادي العرايش) and Dahr El Ahmar (ضهر الأحمر) in the Biqa’a Valley. There, Ellis had a grocery store at 406 South Patterson Street. Around 1917, the Moses family moved to Lake City, Florida, where they operated a fruit and vegetable store on the town’s main thoroughfare, 218 North Marion Street, and a filling station on the outskirts of town. The Moses family attended the local Catholic mission church, St. Joseph’s, and were heavily involved in establishing the permanent parish of the Epiphany in 1944.</p>
<p>Both Ellis’s brother Joseph's family and his cousin Nola Romey's family moved to Lake City as well. Joseph (Joe) (1894-1928) and Adel Moses (1895-1927) had three children: Ethel (1919), Edward Joseph (1920-1999), and David. Nola George Romey (d.1929) married Fannie (Hasna) Joseph Habib Rahme and they had four children: Icer (1909-1995), Emeline (1916-2012 m. Stewart), Leila (1921-2005 m. Giardina), and Lucille (1924-1995).</p>
<p>In May, 1929, tragedy struck the Moses and Romey families when Fannie (Hasna) Romey was killed in a shootout with local police. Nola Romey was beaten, arrested, abducted from the jail by a mob (sources indicate by the KKK) and lynched along the side of the Fort White Road south of Lake City. Ellis and Fannie adopted the Romey’s four orphaned children and moved to Birmingham, Alabama shortly after. Ellis and Fannie had also adopted the children of Joseph and Adel. Adel was tragically killed by an accidental gunshot while standing on the front porch of her brother-in-law Ellis’s home on the Jacksonville Highway, and Joe had died a year later.</p>
<h4>Scope/Content note</h4>
<p>The Moses and Romey Family Papers include materials donated by two granddaughters of Ellis and Fannie Moses. They are Teresa Bishop Angove, daughter of Helen Moses Bishop, and Sandra Moses Ryland, daughter of Norman Moses.</p>
<p>The bulk of the collection is photographs, which include pictures of Ellis and Fannie Moses, their children and grandchildren, Ellis's brother Joseph's family, and Ellis's cousin Nola's family. There are documents relating to Joseph and Adel's family as well.</p>

Moses and Romey Family Papers
Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical note</h4>
<p>This collection represents three families who lived in Valdosta, Georgia, and Lake City, Florida. Ellis Moses came from Zahle in the Biqa’a Valley of modern Lebanon. His wife, Fannie Johns may have originated in the village of Wadi El Aarayech (وادي العرايش) as she later wrote to relatives in that town. Together, Ellis and Fannie had eight children. Bessie (7/1906-1928) born in Syria; Amelia (6/12/1912-1992 m. Castrinos); Sallie (8/1914-2012 m. Barnes); Noidrie (1/1916-1993); and Philip (1919-2009) all born in Valdosta, Georgia; Norman (1921-2005); Leo (1923-1992); and Helen (1926-2004 m. Bishop) all born in Lake City, Florida.</p>
<p>Ellis Moses arrived at Ellis Island on September 5, 1907, while Fannie and Bessie followed later on. By 1908, Ellis was settled in Valdosta, Georgia in a community of his countrymen and relatives who mainly hailed from the villages of Wadi El Aarayech (وادي العرايش) and Dahr El Ahmar (ضهر الأحمر) in the Biqa’a Valley. There, Ellis had a grocery store at 406 South Patterson Street. Around 1917, the Moses family moved to Lake City, Florida, where they operated a fruit and vegetable store on the town’s main thoroughfare, 218 North Marion Street, and a filling station on the outskirts of town. The Moses family attended the local Catholic mission church, St. Joseph’s, and were heavily involved in establishing the permanent parish of the Epiphany in 1944.</p>
<p>Both Ellis’s brother Joseph's family and his cousin Nola Romey's family moved to Lake City as well. Joseph (Joe) (1894-1928) and Adel Moses (1895-1927) had three children: Ethel (1919), Edward Joseph (1920-1999), and David. Nola George Romey (d.1929) married Fannie (Hasna) Joseph Habib Rahme and they had four children: Icer (1909-1995), Emeline (1916-2012 m. Stewart), Leila (1921-2005 m. Giardina), and Lucille (1924-1995).</p>
<p>In May, 1929, tragedy struck the Moses and Romey families when Fannie (Hasna) Romey was killed in a shootout with local police. Nola Romey was beaten, arrested, abducted from the jail by a mob (sources indicate by the KKK) and lynched along the side of the Fort White Road south of Lake City. Ellis and Fannie adopted the Romey’s four orphaned children and moved to Birmingham, Alabama shortly after. Ellis and Fannie had also adopted the children of Joseph and Adel. Adel was tragically killed by an accidental gunshot while standing on the front porch of her brother-in-law Ellis’s home on the Jacksonville Highway, and Joe had died a year later.</p>
<h4>Scope/Content note</h4>
<p>The Moses and Romey Family Papers include materials donated by two granddaughters of Ellis and Fannie Moses. They are Teresa Bishop Angove, daughter of Helen Moses Bishop, and Sandra Moses Ryland, daughter of Norman Moses.</p>
<p>The bulk of the collection is photographs, which include pictures of Ellis and Fannie Moses, their children and grandchildren, Ellis's brother Joseph's family, and Ellis's cousin Nola's family. There are documents relating to Joseph and Adel's family as well.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical Note</h4>
<p>Ellis Zaytoun was born in Hammana, Lebanon on May 30, 1890. He immigrated to the United States in 1906 along with two of his brothers and by 1910 had moved to New Bern, North Carolina. Ellis began work as a peddler and dry goods clerk. In 1911, Ellis submitted an application for naturalization and was naturalized in 1916.</p>
<p>During this time, Ellis established himself as an integral member of the New Bern community. In 1913, he volunteered for the local fire department and in 1916 he served as a member of the Syrian Brotherhood Society of New Bern, an early humanitarian group dedicated to providing aid to Lebanese, Syrians, and Armenians. In 1914, Ellis married Isabel DeKash, a fellow Lebanese immigrant from Hamana, Lebanon. Isabel and Ellis had six children who survived to adulthood: Evelyn Gladys Zaytoun Farris, Vivian Grace Zaytoun Salem, Constance Teresa Zaytoun Lamar, Joseph Ellis Zaytoun, Agnes Zaytoun Murman, and Henry Zaytoun. In 1917, Ellis expanded his fruit stand into a permanent grocery. In 1930, he owned a restaurant and by 1950 he had opened the Zaytoun News Agency. In 1940, Ellis was employed at John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Company, and in 1957 he founded Zaytoun and Associates with his eldest son, Joseph.</p>
<p>Joseph Zaytoun studied Economics at the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. He enlisted in the United States Marine Corps in 1942, and began his service after his college graduation in 1943. Joseph, who had worked for the UNC student newspaper, the Daily Tarheel, helped his mother and sisters run the Zaytoun News Agency. He later served as president of the family insurance company. He co-founded the Capital National Bank in 1973, which merged with BB&T to become one of the largest banks in the Carolinas.</p>
<p>Ellis and Isabel's youngest son, Henry Zaytoun, also became a successful businessman. Henry studied at University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill and at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry. After serving in the United States Navy, Zaytoun began practicing dentistry in Rocky Mount. In 1958, he pursued a Master of Science in Orthodontics from the UNC-Chapel Hill School of Dentistry; in 1959, he and his family moved to Raleigh, where he established Zaytoun Orthodontics with his wife Martha.</p>
<p>In 1946, Joseph Zaytoun married Thelma Knuckley, the daughter of Lebanese immigrants from South Carolina. Thelma volunteered at Rex Healthcare for decades and advocated for childrens health. Between 1977 and 1985, she was a member of the Governor's Advocacy Committee on Children and Youth; following this, she was a member of the North Carolina Child Advocacy Institute. In the 1990s, Governor Jim Hunt appointed Thelma to the North Carolina Commission on Volunteerism and Community Service. Joseph Zaytoun established the Thelma Knuckley Zaytoun Scholarship for nursing education as a gift for their 45th wedding anniversary. Joseph served a four-year term on the North Carolina State Board of Elections beginning in 1961, under Governor Terry Sanford. Joseph also served on the Cary Chamber of Commerce and the Cary Cultural Arts Commission. He was an instrumental part of the Tryon Palace Commission, which preserved and established Tryon Palace in New Bern from 1977 to 1985, and the Wake County Historic Preservation Commission. In 1999, Joseph was awarded the Pro Ecclesia et Pontifice Award from Pope John Paul II.</p>
<p>Joseph and Thelma had four children: Stephen Zaytoun, Mary Zaytoun Benton, Robert Zaytoun, and Albert Zaytoun. Stephen Zaytoun joined the family business, extending Ellis Zaytoun’s insurance business into a third generation.</p>
