The following family history of Nellie Kh oury Abraham and Felix (Doumit)
Khoury is based on the village church records of births, baptisms, marriages
and deaths and some oral histo-ry, \Y'hich were compiled in 1934 by Father Yousef
(Kalem Cory's father), who was then the village priest.
According to these records and the information incorporated by Father
Yousef, the first to inhabit the little remote plateau in the mountains of
north Lebanon were Tannous Jreige (Anthony George) and h is wife, Sara .
are considered the fo unders of the village of Mazarat Taffah .
They
They both
came from the nearby and much older village of Egbeh; but their ancien t
ancestors were originally from the town of Jazeen in the south.
They nad
only one son whom they named Jreige, and he is the ancestoral father of the
Jreige family .
Aunt Faraj is a descendant of Tannous, as is Aunt Margaret.
The second family to occupy the fertile plateau was Ghanim el Shur and
his Wife, Mileni .
Ghanim was also from Egbeh and a friend of Tannous.
His
ancestors , however, came from the Land of Two Rivers, which is ?-Iesapotamia modern Iraq and Iran.
In the seventh century when the Arabs set out to conquer
the Middle East, the Christians then began to emigrate to distant places,
settling
predominantly in mountainous regions difficult to reach by the
waring Muslims .
Ghanim ' s reason for leaving Egbeh was the death of his little son .
is said that while he was chopping down a
mulberry tree, he accidentally
hit his son who died and Ghanim swore to l eave Egbeh permanently .
invited him to come down to Mozarat Taffah - meaning apple grove
Tannous
and
start a new life which Ghanim did and he named his second and only son
Antonious (after Tannous).
family.

He is the ancestoral father of the Karam
(All of this took place presumably in the fifteenth century, but
�/

I doubt it was that early counting the generations .
On the oth e r hand ,
Father Yousef may have skipped a century or two.)
The third founding father of the village was Antonious Shbat .
He is
known as the " fugitive " who came from the town of Aramoon in the south of
Lebanon.
(His ancestors , it is sa id - an d now his descendants claim -were
related to the old Gumya l family , one of whose sons is now president of
the country.)
Rufka
At any rate, Shbat married Tannous Jreige ' s granddaughter,
settled in the village and sired seven sons and three daughters .
He i s the ancestoral father of the Shbat family and several differen t
branches . (The
Barkets of Dover a nd Miami, the Thomases of OhlD
including Aunt Mary, the Ibraheen Maroonsand the As ias of Pennsylvania
are among his many descendants .)
And let ' s return to Ghanim el Shur .
His last name was originally
Shira r a, which in Syria c , the language of the Bible, means spark .
This
led to his being nic knamed el Shur, meaning in Arabic the troublemaker .
"But God only knows ," said Father Yousef.
His son Antonious married Marta from the central coast town of Batroon
and s ired three sons - Jreige, Munsour (Victor) and Karam (the gener ous
one) .
Jreige Ghanim married Hanni , the daughter of Barket Sarkis Shbat and
