looking for relations of my grandfather elias coory whom moved to new zealand around 1920 with his brother john from becharre lebanon.
They had two brothers whom moved to south america one being michael and we think he went to Argentina.
One brother stayed in becharre and became a school teacher and two sisters whom remained in lebanon
There father was a maronite priest called Butros and there mother was Yesmen

does anyone know anything, regards John Coory

Shickry Besharra Badour in my tree. aka S. B. Badour. He was a teacher. I think he taught french at a university in lebanon. came to u.s. with his sister nellie (nazzra?) badour farah/farrah. I have had lots of trouble finding info on his parents and siblings. if this rings a bell, let me know. thanks in advance.

also...nellie badour farah was married to habib tanous farah. these people lived in north carolina. tanous farah was habib's father who was married to annie or hanniah khoury.
