This is so interesting! I have to admit, I'm almost wondering if this is a hoax! Guess what my father's name is? Norman Smaha! But he's not from Lebanon, he was born in Santa Clara, California. My grampa Joseph had 2 children, my dad, Norman and a daughter, Verna. My dad is now 84 years old. I have only one brother, Ronald Norman, but he had 2 sons, Russell Randy Smaha, both living in the Bay Area of California. Randy has a son, Reid Patrick Smaha. I think the Auntie in L.A.'s name was Sadie Smaha or Samaha. Is she part of your family? I don't know if Grampa had other siblings, but I remember a picture of an uncle or something in Lebanon who was some type of Orthodox priest - in long black robes. Unfortunately, my grampa died in 1959 when I was only 10 years old not curious enough yet to ask any questions. By the way, in the apparent Smaha tradition, my father was a communications engineer (I think was in the first engineering graduate class from San Jose State), my brother is a PC board designer his youngest son is also in that type of business. It is very strange to see the name "Joe Smaha" on something after all these years!
