Ramallah Masons: 1925


My grandfather is standing on the left, and the man standing on the right is Yousef Cadoura, who was mayor of Ramallah from 1943-47.

Comments:
Hello. Yousef Cadoura was my grandfather. I am curious to know where this picture came from and also if I could have your permission to republish it. My cousins and I are constructing a Wikipedia page about him.

Regards,

Deric Cadora
 
The picture is from Nasseb Shaheen's A Pictorial History of Ramallah, published by Arab Institute for Research and Publishing in Beirut, 1992. The complete caption on p 187: Ramallah masons, ca 1925.
