The Hedison (Heditisian) and Lulejian Family Tree

My name is David J. Hedison the great great grandson of Garabed Lulejian, Tavit (David) Hedison, Krikor Kalajian, Kano Vartanian, Krikor Kazanjian, Khatchatoun Hedison, Barsorian and Echmalian. I am now 41 years old and have been working on the Family Tree since 2003. I could not have gathered all of this information without the help of a number of relatives. Sadly, K. Cyrus Melikian and Dr. Gary Lulejian have passed away - but I will carry on their work and passion for documenting the family history. I would like to share the information I have found. I will continue to update this site with information and pictures. I encourage family members to send me electronic copies of pictures that can be added and will do my best to keep it current. The tree now contains over 1000 members and am trying to have it displayed here. In addition, I have over 100 letters written Armenian from 1890's to 1910. They are from the Lulejian and Hedison family.
