Safy Family Papers
Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical Note</h4>
<p>In 1894, George Joseph Safy immigrated to the United States at 26 years of age; he lived in New York City for nine years, and was naturalized in 1903. In 1907, he returned to Lebanon, before coming back to the US with his wife Susie (Soosan) Safy. The couple arrived in New York on August 21, 1907, on the ship the S.S. Majestic. By 1910, the couple had settled in Mullins, South Carolina, and became successful in the town's business scene. George Joseph Safy was a member of the Macedonian Methodist Church and the local Masonic Lodge. In the 1920s, they moved north to Weldon, North Carolina. The couple had five children: Sophie Mae Safy Rabil (1909-1987), Alice Eugene Safy Lewis (1914-1977), Sue Olga Safy (1916-1937), George Joseph Safy (1921-1944), and George Victor Safy (1924-1977). They also had four children who died in infancy: Alice (1910-1911) Joseph (1912-1912), Kafa (1917-1917), and Eveline (1918-1918).</p>
<p>George Joseph Safy suffered a heart attack and passed away on July, 18, 1924. He was buried in Mullins, South Carolina at his request. In 1926, Susie remarried to Betrus Dahar (B.D.) Rabil. The Safy children appear to have spent time in the Epworth Orphanage in Columbia, South Carolina, where they are listed in the 1930 census. The children rejoined their mother and stepfather in North Carolina by the late 1930s. </p>
<p>In 1937, Sue Olga died from complications with acute appendicitis while she lived in Rocky Mount and worked as a sales associate. Both George Victor and George Joseph served in World War II. George Joseph was killed in action when his plane was shot down over Germany on September 9, 1944. He is buried in the Lorraine American Cemetery in France. <span>Sophie Mae married Albert Rabil, B.D.'s son from his first marriage to Beula Davis Striman, and had two children: Albert Rabil, Jr., and Carolyn Joan Rabil. Alice Eugene attended Winthrop College in Rock Hill, South Carolina, and taught at the Lincoln School in Kingsport, Tennessee. In 1946, she married Frank Milton Lewis. George Victor married Agnes Harper Ellen in 1951.</span></p>
<p>Susie Safy and B.D. Rabil had two additional children together, Virginia Dell Rabil Mansour (b. 1927) and Betrus Dahar Rabil, Jr (1929-2004). B.D. Rabil, Sr., passed away in 1964; Susie passed away in 1969. Sophie Mae Safy Rabil and Albert Rabil, Sr., brought a lawsuit against Virginia Dell Rabil Mansour and B.D. Rabil, Jr. over which of two wills should be given priority: a joint will created by B.D. Rabil, Sr., and Susie Safy Rabil, or a subsequent will made by Susie Safy Rabil following the death of her second husband. The case was settled in 1970 by the North Carolina Supreme Court, which upheld the bequeathal of B.D. Rabil, Sr.’s real estate and personal property to his two youngest children, Virginia Mansour and B.D. Rabil, Jr.</p>
<h4>Scope/Content Note</h4>

Amelia and Joseph Salem Papers
Description
An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical Note</h4>
<p>Joseph Ramon Salem was born in Hammana, Lebanon on May 5, 1909, to Freda George and Shikery Salem. Freda and Shikery had four children: Renee (also called Rena), Bertha, Joseph, and Albert. In June of 1912, Shikery Salem immigrated to the United States. He joined members of Freda’s family in New Bern, North Carolina and worked as a peddler in order to gain the funds required to bring his family to North Carolina. The onset of World War I, however, interrupted the family's plans to reunite in the United States as communication between the United States and Ottoman Empire was cut off.</p>
<p>Back in Hammana, Freda and the four children faced isolation from members of their extended family and were forced to work in fields by supporters of the Central Powers. They also felt the effects of the famine suffered during the war. In 1917, Shikery enlisted in the United States Army, becoming the first Lebanese American from Eastern North Carolina to do so. He served in Battery A of the 113 Field Artillery and fought in France, including in the Argonne Forest. He was awarded honors for bravery for saving the lives of two superior officers. In 1918, Shikery re-applied for naturalization and was granted United States citizenship. His military service helped Shikery reunite his family; friends he made in the military, including Robert Haines, fellow soldiers, and the Red Cross, helped Shikery locate his family and bring them to New Bern in 1920.</p>
<p>In partnership with fellow Lebanese-American Frederick Habeeb, Shikery purchased the New Bern Bargain House, the Craven Fruit Store, a gas station, a convenience store, and a taxi service. Although the Salem family were Maronites, they attended the St. Paul's, a Roman Catholic church, in New Bern.</p>
<p>Renee Salem married David Halen of New Jersey. In the 1930s, Renee and her family assisted Shikery in running his businesses; later, they moved to New Jersey, where she lived until her death. Renee and David had five children: Frank, Raymond, Louis, Lucille, and Theresa. Bertha Salem married Charles K. Fadel, a Lebanese American from Charlotte. The couple settled in Fayetteville, where they opened and operated the Palace Grill. They had four children: Sammy, Frieda, Albert, and Shikery. Albert Salem, the youngest son of Freda and Shikery, married Vivian Zaytoun, daughter of Ellis and Isabel Zaytoun, on July 14, 1937. Albert earned seven battle stars working as a radio operator for the United States Navy. Albert and Vivian had four children: Albert, Jr., Richard, Robert, and Mary Isabel. Albert and Vivian lived in North Carolina before retiring to Tampa, Florida.</p>
<p>Joseph Salem graduated high school as valedictorian in 1929 and then attended the North Carolina State College of Agriculture and Engineering (now North Carolina State University), where he studied electrical engineering. In 1942, Joseph married Amelia Wehbie, daughter of Mickel Mettrey and Mary Saliba Wehbie, with whom he had four children: Jay, Michael Ray, Donna, and Ronald. The same year, he joined the United States Army and served as a cryptanalytic officer at Arlington Hall during World War II. Joseph remained in the Army Reserve until 1963, when he was transferred to the Retired Reserve. Joe had a career as an electrical engineer in Raleigh, and also served as City Electrical Engineer for the town of New Bern. After retiring, Joe became a substitute teacher. He died at age 102.</p>
<p>Amelia Mettrey Wehbie Salem graduated from Hugh Morson High School in Raleigh and Hardbargers Business College. She worked for the Red Cross during World War II, Craven Regional Medical Center, Raleigh News and Observer, the North Carolina Department of Agriculture, and the North Carolina Department of Revenue. Amelia was known for her Lebanese cooking, her greenhouse propagation of camellias, Japanese maples, and hybrid tea roses. She passed away on February 5, 2009.</p>
