            Narig's father was killed in Zeitoun and she was deported with the family, whose members all died on the road, she alone reached Biredjik. There she lived in a Turkish house. The names of her parents she has quite forgotten, but she knew very well, that she was an Armenian girl, and when she found an opportunity, she fled to the church of her people, from where she was sent to Aleppo.

            She only remembers the name of her native village and that she had an uncle named Vahan, who was a soldier.
