Victoria's father died before the deportation. She was exiled with her mother and three brothers to Deir-el-Zor. On the road her mother became ill and died. Near Ras-el-Ain the Kurds attacked the caravan. Most of the people were robbed and killed, her three brothers included. A Kurd of Ras-el-Ain, a former friend of Victoria's father protected her, taking her to his village near the same town. The Kurd had no children by his former wife. When Victoria grew up, he married her. She lived with him till he was killed by Kemalists during the Kurdish rebellion in 1925-26. Then she came to Ras-el-Ain and asked the help of our agent who sent her to us.
