Robert (Robeno) Arditti born Turkey 1880
« on: Sunday 24 August 14 20:11 BST (UK) »
Hello can anybody help me with a problem that I have with the death of my Grandfather Please. :)
His name was Robeno Arditi, or Arditti and he was born in Izmir in Turkey 1880. his father was Moise and his mother was Djmila. He died in Tanger Morocco and was buried in the Jewish cemetery in Fez.His death was some time in the 1940s / 1958s. When he moved to England as a young man he changed his name to Robert Arditti. I am trying to find out more about the date of his death and his grave in Fez, Plus and info that covers his parents and his Grandfather Ephraim Arditti and his Grandmother who's name I don't know; plus any other family from his line.

If anybody can help I will be most grateful.......regards Robert Arditti

Hello Robert,

This Sephardic family is going to be very difficult to research. I'd say you'll need specialist help.

Have you had a good look at this website http://www.sephardicgen.com/ ?

How's your French? It seems possible that your grandfather's death may have been recorded in the French civil records.

The Centre des Archives diplomatiques de Nantes (CADN) at 17 rue du Casterneau, 44000, Nantes, France holds civil records of Morocco, from 1912 to 1956.
