Post Help Finding my family in Lebanon!! Reply with quote
This post may not be that creative, but I was not sure where else to post this.

My grandfather and I have been looking for his fathers family in Lebanon for many years. According to all the stories I have heard, I was able to gather some information of my family and where they may be from....

Our last name is Huguet (not sure if that is the same in Lebanon)
My family is from a town called "Al Midan" and our last name may have been Diep before it was changed in Cuba. My Great, Great Grandfather and his son(Musa Huguet or Diep or Awat) left Lebanon for Cuba around 1912. The only other vague information they tell me is that my great grandfathers brother was a priest in his home town and his other brother was in government. Is Al Midan a city in Lebanon?

Does anyone know where I can find more information in regard to finding my Lebanese family? If so please contact me.

It has always been a dream of mine to learn more about where I come from and this country I know so little about.

Kind Regards,

Post Not enough information Reply with quote
Hello, through DiscoverLebanon.com I already helped many many people to meet again and know about their relatives in Lebanon.
The information you gave is not enough to try to help.
Huguet is for sure not the initial Lebanese family name....
Al Midan can be in Lebanon... but where.. several places in Lebanon (in villages main square) are named Al Midan... so plz be precise...
Diep also as a last name is not that... it doesnt exist in Lebanon... the more close I can imagine is "Dib"... there is a family name Dib.... "
Same Awat... maybe "Hawat family"
So sorry your information is really not enough I cannot help.
