<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 which was finalized in 1916. During this time, Ellis established himself as an integral member of the New Bern community. He volunteered for the local fire department and 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.</p>

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. Ellis gradually expanded his business ventures from owning a fruit stand turned grocery to owning both a restaurant and a 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>During World War II Agnes Zaytoun worked at her father's newspaper stand in New Bern, North Carolina. During the war, she met her husband, Charles Murman, at a dance in Cherry Point. They married after the war and moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Agnes was an active member of St. Luke's Parish throughout her adult life.

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>
<h4>Scope/Content Note</h4>
<p>This collection contains materials related to the lives of Joseph Ramon Salem and Amelia Mettrey Wehbie Salem. The collection contains photographs, certificates, and newspaper articles documenting the lives of family members in North Carolina.</p>

An account of the resource
<h4>Biographical/Historical Note</h4>
<p>Betrus Dahar (B.D.) Rabil was the son of Robert Dahar and Marcia Rabil. He was born on April 1, 1883 in Hammana, Lebanon and immigrated to North Carolina in the early twentieth century along with his three brothers Frank Assad, Ameal Peter, and Michael Rabil. Ameal and Michael settled in Weldon, North Carolina, where they married Roslyn and Madeline Rabil, children of Lebanese immigrants Joseph and Bertha Rabil. Ameal and Michael ran the Rabil Brothers Department Store until Michael's death in 1981, and Michael co-owned five rental homes in Weldon with T. Allen Buck (1902-1991) and invested in B.D's property enterprises in Rocky Mount, NC. Frank Assad Rabil, the eldest brother, married Mary Hawa and settled in Weldon between 1920 and 1930. </p>
<p>B.D. Rabil settled in Rocky Mount, NC, where he worked in real estate and property management. In 1907, B.D. married Beula Davis, with whom he had five children: Albert, Lester Frances, Thelma, Veronica, and Margaret. The couple divorced between 1920 and 1925. In 1926, B.D. married Susie Safy, a fellow Lebanese American, whose first husband, George Joseph Safy, had died in 1924. Susie had five children when she married B.D.: 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).</p>
<p>B.D. and Beula's five children appear to have lived with their mother and their stepfather Anthony C. Striman, who married Beulah in 1930. Susie Safy's children appear to have spent time in the Epworth Orphanage in Columbia, South Carolina, where they are listed in the 1930 census before rejoining their mother and stepfather in North Carolina in the 1930s. Susie Safy and B.D. Rabil had two children together, Virginia Dell Rabil Mansour and Betrus Dahar Rabil, Jr. B.D. Rabil, Sr., passed away in 1964; Susie Safy Rabil passed away in 1969. In 1970, the North Carolina Supreme Court 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, after a legal battle between them and his five older children.</p>
<p>Virginia Dell Rabil was born in 1927. She attended the University of North Carolina Women’s College in Greensboro, North Carolina, where she was a member of the Gamma Alpha Sorority. Virginia married Ernest Norman Mansour (1918-1983), a fellow Lebanese American. Virginia and Ernest had two children, Ernest Norman Mansour, Jr., and Edward Francis Mansour II. Ernest Norman Mansour was the child of Michael Norman Mansour and Nellie Heeden Mansour. Michael Mansour settled in Goldsboro, North Carolina, where he opened and operated Mansour’s Department Store (later renamed Hub Department Store). Nell Hedeen was the daughter of Lebanese immigrants Cater and Herley Heeden, who owned a dry-goods business in Rock Hill, South Carolina, before moving to North Carolina. Nell's brother, Ernest Heeden, served in World War I and married Alice Saleeby. William Hedeen, her other brother, was a writer who married Essie Joseph Heeden. </p>
<p>B.D., Jr. was born on July 4, 1929 to Susie and B.D. Rabil in Rocky Mount, NC. He attended the Edwards Military Institute in Salemburg, NC, and served in World War II.Upon his return to Rocky Mount, B.D., Jr. joined the real estate business. He was inducted into the Rocky Mount Bowling Association Hall of Fame in 1988. He married Elsie Asad Rabil in 1962, with whom he had three children: Richard J. Rabil, Robert Joseph Rabil, Sr., and Cynthia Rabil Williams. B.D. Rabil, Jr., passed away in 2004. </p>

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. Ellis gradually expanded his business ventures from owning a fruit stand turned grocery to owning both a restaurant and a 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>During World War II Agnes Zaytoun worked at her father's newspaper stand in New Bern, North Carolina. During the war, she met her husband, Charles Murman, at a dance in Cherry Point.

<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 which was finalized in 1916. During this time, Ellis established himself as an integral member of the New Bern community. He volunteered for the local fire department and 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.</p>
<p>Ellis married Isabel DeKash in 1914, 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. Ellis gradually expanded his business ventures from owning a fruit stand turned grocery to owning both a restaurant and a 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>During World War II Agnes Zaytoun worked at her father's newspaper stand in New Bern, North Carolina. During the war, she met her husband, Charles Murman, at a dance in Cherry Point. They married after the war and moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Agnes was an active member of St. Luke's Parish throughout her adult life. Agnes Zaytoun had six children: Michael Murman, Elaine Murman Ferguson, Evelyn Murman Quigley, David Murman, Ann Marie Murman Grove, and Maureen Murman.</p>

<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 which was finalized in 1916. During this time, Ellis established himself as an integral member of the New Bern community. He volunteered for the local fire department and 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.</p>
<p>Ellis married Isabel DeKash in 1914, 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. Ellis gradually expanded his business ventures from owning a fruit stand turned grocery to owning both a restaurant and a 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>During World War II Agnes Zaytoun worked at her father's newspaper stand in New Bern, North Carolina. During the war, she met her husband, Charles Murman, at a dance in Cherry Point. They married after the war and moved to Cleveland, Ohio. Agnes was an active member of St. Luke's Parish throughout her adult life. Agnes Zaytoun had six children: Michael Murman, Elaine Murman Ferguson, Evelyn Murman Quigley, David Murman, Ann Marie Murman Grove, and Maureen Murman.</p>
