Karim Sarraf and Family

 
Karim Sarraf circa 1925

The words: Apolloni Constantinople" are embossed on photo. Philip's son Selim Philip Sarraf states: "When you see Constantinople embossed on the corner of any photo, that definitely means that the photo was taken at Constantinople (Istanbul), which was the capital of the Ottoman empire where my father was working before he came and established himself in Aleppo and got married."

This photo was identified as Antoine Abdulkerim Sarraf and Julie Mazloum.
If this is correct, then he is the son who worked at the train station and
saved the family from genocide by the Turks.

 
Karim's wife Julie Mazloum - Dated 31 March 1925
George Saraf's letter to the Procurement Generale appointed
Jean Mazloum his legal representative 23 August 1925.

This photo was sent to me by Fadi Sarraf in January 2010.

This is what he wrote: "I'm attaching a photo where you can see my side of the family. In the back row from left to right: Rosette Chalhoub Sarraf (my mother), George Sarraf (my dad), Jaoudat Mazloum (an uncle), Houda Chalhoub (my maternal grandmother), Georgette Sarraf (my dad's sister). In the front row from left to right: me, Myriam Sarraf (Georgette's daughter), Karim Antoine Sarraf (my brother) and Juliana Sarraf (my sister). It was taken on the day of my brother's first communion, probably in 1975." I think he means Right to Left as the man second from the right in the back is clearly George Sarraf, Grandpa Saraf's nephew.
