Shushanig's father went to America
before the persecutions. During the deportations a Turk married her mother.
Shushanig remained with them. When the war was over, her father came from
America to Aleppo, in order to save his wife and daughter. He spent all that he
had, but was in vain. The poor man returned hopeless to America again. When
Shushanig grew up. The Turk wanted to marry her to the son of his first wife,
but her mother with help of our agent sent her to Aleppo profiting by his
husband's absence.
We are trying to locate her father in America.
