Line 34: Line 34:
 
Ahmad and Juanita had one child, a girl Laila J in 1921.  Ahmad and Juanita were divorced either while Juanita was pregnant or within a year after Laila was born.  A site visitor tells me that Laila never met her father.  In his autobiography, writen about 1929, Ahmad mentions neither Juanita nor his daughter Leila.

In the 1930 census Juanita Sohrab and her daughter Laila are living with her mother Johanna Storch in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, California.  Juanita and Laila lived for some years in Santa Rosa, with Laila showing up in Passenger Lists giving her address as Santa Rosa, at late as 1953.  They moved eventually to Seattle, where the Social Security Death Index shows Juanita living with Laila, but Juanita either moved back to Sonoma County or at least died there in 1995.  Laila was still living in Seattle as late as 2002 under the name "Laila Storch".

Although Sohrab wrote an Autobiography which covers his life up to when he joined up with [[Julia Lynch Olin|Mrs Julia Chanler]], he does not appear to mention his wife nor daughter, which is perhaps a bit odd.
