            Sara was married before the deportation. During the exile her husband was taken in to the Turkish army but he never returned again. Her parents died before the general war. She came on the road with her sister and relatives.

            On the road, in Urfa a Kurd took her to his house and married her by force, while her sister went further on with the caravan. She remained two years with her possessor. During that time she succeeded to inform one of the Turkish friends of her first husband who arranged Sara's return back to her native country. There a rich Turk had protected an Armenian young man. After a time Sara was married to that young man and in the process of time she had gained three children from him.

            During the last Kurdish rebellion her husband was obliged to leave his family and flee away. (If he is still alive, is supposed to be in Syria). Sara being informed about our rescue-home, came into connection with Arab pounar agent, and by paying some money to a muleteer she reached there, from where our agent sent her with her three children to us.

 

We are looking for her husband now.

We found Sara's husband in Aleppo, and she herself and her three children went to live with him.

 

Left our care: November 12, 1926. Relatives. Husband in Aleppo.
