Hi,
I am searching my surname (if any) or anybody who also have a same story as me (wonder if I have "unknown" relatives) in Saudi Arabia.
The story begins like this:
My grandfather's dad is an Arab from Saudi Arabia. I am not sure whether which great grandfather went to Singapore, either Zain or Sheikh Abdullah or Sheikh Nafis. In early 1900 or before, he came to Singapore for business and his brother went to Palembang(Indonesia). If I am not mistaken the name sound like Abdul Rahim(born in 1933 and is my grandfather) bin Zain bin Sheikh Abdullah bin Sheikh Nafis bin...
To make it short, my grandfather's dad ever told my dad and my grandfather(Abdul Rahim) that his ancestor the one who take care of Masjid al-Haram. In the end, he went back to Saudi Arabia after his business were unsuccessful in Singapore. And til now never heard of him again.
Please anybody knows the person please email me..
