During the deportation the whole family was exiled southward to Malatia where he was separated from his parents and was brought to Biredjik accompanied with his grandmother. An Arab took Megerditch away from the old woman and brought him to Urfa. He took care of him until he could help him in his farm.

                  Megerditch never heard about his relatives, but when he was informed that many Armenians were still living in Aleppo, he fled and reached Deir-el-Zor, from where he was sent to our reception house.

 

 

Left our care: June 5, 1926. Selfsupporting.
