Guzelimian/Ishkhanian/Tchakedjian Family Tree
Vahe Guzelimian

Introduction
This is the 16th version of our family tree.
The Guzelimian family tree originates with Nerses Guzelimian. Born in the 1840’s?? He called everyone Guzelim (my pretty one in Turkish), so his name became Guzelimian, changed from Minassian, Menassian, Minasian, Menasian. This is not certain.
Please review this document and if you are able, submit changes, corrections and photos. The genealogy of our families is an important and lasting legacy. It is a great educational resource for members of our family. It demostrates the loss of many lives through the termination of many lines in 1915. Hopefully the Turkish Government will soon acknowledge its responsibility for the genocides.
