Who’s Going
Are You Headed To Rhodes?
Connect with other people going to Rhodes. Throughout the year, “Rhodeslis” (Jews born in Rhodes), and their children and grandchildren visit Rhodes. Sometimes families meet each other by coincidence during their visits, experiencing a special moment of “allegria”. Other times families miss each other by days or hours because they did not know they were also there at the same time. This page is developed to create a link for those interested in making that special connection with other “Rhodeslis” traveling to “La Juderia”.

My husband and I will be in Rhodes Nov. 14th and are very excited to visit the Sephardic sites and to see where my parents were born. Aron Hasson interviewed my mother, Violette Amato Levy in 2005 in Atlanta, Ga. when he was here at our synagogue, Or VeShalom to show and exhibit many photos and the “800 Year Old Torah”. My great grandfather was Chilibi Amato (Codron). Thank you.

My husband and I will be travelling to Rhodes from South Africa in June/July (29th-2nd) with our 3 children. We look forward to seeing the place my grandparents (Capelouto & Israel families) called ‘home’. We would like to meet with other descendents and anyone who shares the history – we are also very excited to see the museum that you have created.

I was just curious because I know my family went from Rhodos to the Congo, and ultimately to South Afica. I am a mixture of three families, Israel, Capelouto and Franco. All from Rhodos. Maybe we are related.

My family is traveling to Rhodes on August 13-15th & plan to attend Friday night services with other families. My grandparents were born in Rhodes in the early 1900′s & I would like to find out information regarding my grandfather Nissim Tarica. He is believed to have been born around 1905, and left for the USA around the age of 15.
