Nationality & Ethnicity

The Al Fakhro family settled in both Qatar and Bahrain during the seventeenth century. This is because they were obliged to move from Najd (Sudair region), where the well of Al-Fakhrawiya still exists, to the eastern side of the Arab Peninsula due to severe drought conditions in that period of time. In Qatar, they notably settled in the regions of Nozwah, Tembek, Tha'ayin, and Hawar Island where they built the famous wells which still exists in the Hawar island, and which dates back to the last three centuries. Moreover, the Al Fakhro is now distributed within Al-Khor, Al-Wakrah, Al-Jasra, and Doha. Some of them have settled in Al-Manama, and Muharraq, Bahrain; in ash-Sharqiyah, and Jubail, Saudi Arabia; and also in Kuwait and United Arab Emirates.
