Home > Family Trees of the Zohrab/Zorab Family > Kelvin Pollock's's Copy of Judge Edgar Zorab's Family Tree

The first known family tree of the descendants of Zohrab was drawn up in Armenian by Aviet (Avetick) Carapiet Zohrabyants in 1919 (Aviet's Tree). An English version of this tree was drawn by Judge Edgar Zorab over five pages of a notebook. What appears to be a hand-drawn copy of this tree was kindly sent by Kelvin Pollock to Peter Zohrab, who has joined them together and then scanned them in four sections for viewing on the Web. Unfortunately, I did not originally keep a record on paper of who sent me which of the many family trees which I have received, so I have been confused and in error about this at times.

The tree commences with Zorab (Zohrab) of the clan of the Manuchariantz and his four sons.  You will notice that:

• There are not always vertical lines indicating that a name is connected to the horizontal line above it (by being an offspring).  See, for example, Peter, at the top of the Left-Centre Part.

• The horizontal line indicating the children of the original Zohrab appears to terminate at Peter, making Simon (top of the Right-Hand Side) look like Peter's son, rather than his brother, as in other versions of the family tree.

In comparison with Edward van Put's version, this version of the family tree seems like an inferior, hand-drawn copy.
