I discovered that Joseph's original last name was Aboud and he changed it to Abraham after he came to the US. Joseph had a brother and a sister that also came to the US but they used the last name Elias. He also had family still living in Lebanon. A brother named Tofik Michael Aboud living in a village called Hassineya. My great aunt, Mae, went to Lebanon in 1982 to visit the Aboud family. Alot of this information was found in some letters to his wife Afify regarding property he owned in Lebanon after his death and a letter from his sister Jeannette (Elias) Faddol.
