Ain Zhalta, Lebanon
I just found another link to Ain Zhalta, the village in Lebanon that my mother's family, the Shakoors, lived in in the mid nineteenth century. There are no Shakoors listed on the website, but there is a 'Zakhoor' listed as living locally (and serving on the village council at the time that the website was last updated between 2002-4) and two Shakkours from the village now living in the USA. There is also a link to a place called Kenmore in Washington state, USA, shown as a 'sister town'. Perhaps this is where the Shakkours from Ain Zhalta now live.
There is an aerial photograph of the village on the home page of the web site.
I want to go and visit this place.

Glad to hear you have found some info re the past. If only my mums mum [nan] had been a bit more open about her bit of hanky panky that got her pregnant we might know of relatives living in france or even in Mount Morgan here in Australia. Lovely photo of Becki. How are the cycle legs, getting fitter from all the gym work??? Mark x By the way how do you set up the permalink for the emails?
