I'm a Christian from Egypt.  I left Egypt 41 years ago and never went back.

 

I grew up in the College de la Salle in Cairo.

 

I cherish my childhood growing up with Jewish, Greek, Lebanese and Italian friends and was totally disappointed when my best friends left Egypt.

 

I also left as soon as I got a chance.  Egypt was a beautiful country before 1952.

I was born in Cairo in 1952. My father s name is Raphael and my mother s one is Ginette.
We moved in France in 1963. My mother strongly recommend it to me not to visit back and just to keep in mind the sweet memories that I have. I feel strongly attached to my Egyptian Jewish roots and more generally speaking to the Jewish Egyptian community.
I feel that we have something special that make us different from the other Jewish community. Special does not mean naturally better.

Found your web site as I was looking in to finding memoir of people who lived /grew up in Egypt.

 

I found the article What AM I.

 

I can relate some how to this article, I was born and raised in Sudan, my parents and ancestors are copts from Egypt. I never felt I belong to Sudan or Egypt .

 

I had a Jewish childhood friend in Sudan her name is Rachel Sal eh Baroque and her sister is Lily I lost contact with them she was my best friend I heard from mom that they had to leave the country because they are Jews. that was probably 1n the late sixty.

 

I am longing to know where about my friend is and hope I could find her alive and well . Do not know where to start.

Hello.
 
Came across this wonderful site, by pure coincidence. It is indeed very interesting and informative.
 
Does anyone have knowledge of the SOFEIR Family from Cairo?
It is my understanding that they once owned a Department Store in the City.
 
Greetings to all.

Dear Egyptian Historical Society,
     I have enjoyed reading your posts for years now.  Some months ago, I advised you of my new email address.  Since then I haven't heard anything, but today I received this curt message:

     You have been denied admittance to this Yahoo group.

What did I do?  Am I suddenly a persona non grata?

                                    Yours sincerely (but bewildered...),

6Hi

I'd like to know if there were Alliance schools in Cairo, Alexandria and elsewhere in Egypt, when each was established, if they took girls, and how many Jews sent their children to them.

Je suis le N°24 sur la liste des internés d'Abou Zaabal et de Torah. Je n'ai pas voulu ni pu apporter un témoignage plus tôt car malgré les années passées depuis cette atroce épreuve, il subsiste encore un malaise et une profonde douleur. Je félicite ceux qui parmi mes "camarades" d'infortune ont pu livrer quelques commentaires -
Je m'exprimerai peut être plus longuement un de ces jours mais dans l'immédiat je souhaiterais simplement effacer à jamais de ma mémoire l'injustice que l'on a fait subir aux Juifs d'Egypte.
Cordiales salutations.

I passed by your site when I was looking for pictures of Cairo in the old days I felt that you really love Egypt as it is your home and longing for it but I do not think that you are obliged to leave it some jews still live in Egypt but you thought that israel is a better home.if you stayed in egypt it could be better for you and for egyptians to leave with them in peace than to be their enemy

 Vim para o brasil em 1957. Nasci no Egito em 1930. Gostaria muito de poder saber mais de meus parentes no Egito. Meu avô e meus tios tinham uma loja de antiguidades no Cairo. Meu avô Carmona, minha tia Ida e meu tio Nissim morreram no Egito. Sei somente a data da morte de tio Nissim.
Meu pai Solomon Carmona viveu no Cairo e depois em Heliópolis até 1970, quando foi encontrar meus irmãos Gilbert e Isaac em Los Angeles/ EUA.
Há uma história envolvendo libelo de sangue e a familia Carmona, mas não sei se é verdade.
Se voces tiverem alguma novidade agradeço
Sílvia
