List of the Armenians of Jerusalem, circa 1950




	The year 1948 was a catastrophic milestone in the history of the Armenian community of Jerusalem. The Arab Israeli war wreaked terrible havoc on the Armenian compound, making the occupants refugees once again, giving added impetus to the massive exodus of Armenians, many of whom chose to return to the Motherland while others sought succor in the hospitable neighboring Arab countries. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) for Palestine Refugees stepped in to provide timely aid and support to the shrunken community, with Kaghakatzi leaders in the vanguard of the volunteer corps that looked after their security and their material welfare. To help with their efforts, the secretariat of the Patriarchate of St James conducted a census and prepared a list of all Armenian families, Kaghakatzis and Vanketzis alike, residing in the Old City. The list contains a total of over 540 families, a far cry from the handful holding the fort there now. The actual date of its compilation is not available, but it is safe to assume that it was written sometime in the early 1950's. We have arranged the names alphabetically, beginning with the surname, for easier viewing. But we have left the spelling as it appeared originally. Presumably, the list was typewritten by the secretariat's Sahag Kalaydjian. This is the list.
