                  Her father died before the war. During the deportation she lost her brother, there are no more news about him.

                  Mariam and her mother reached to Khaboor where she lost her mother. The caravan was forced to march further. On the road she was taken by an Arab to his house. The Arab married her and she lived with him many years without having any knowledge about her relatives. After a time, she heard that many Armenians still were living in Aleppo, she tried several times to return to her own nation but was hindered.

                  Once she got an opportunity and fled to Deir-el-Zor, there she saw an Armenian motor-car driver, and asked him for aid. The latter consented to her request and brought her to us.
