Re: the origin of the surname "Parthemer"
in reply to a message by Ben Aly
I don't know how your friend came to the conclusion that the name sounds Arab. There is no letter P in Arabic.

Yes, thank you. Somewhere, out there, there is an "Alice" or "Olga" or "Christopher" Parthemer that arrived in the U.S. in the mid to late 1800s. And they couldn't have been of Arab origins. That clears up all my questions...I found my needle in the haystack.
