Early life
Hamid was born in Ehden Lebanon, the son of Kabalan Suleimen Frangieh[2] and Lamia Raffoul[3] from Ejbah Lebanon. The family had a long history of public service, his grandfather (1847-1908) acting as District Governor; his father, a member of Parliament (in 1929); and his brother Suleiman[4] becoming President of Lebanon.
Hamid attended "Frères des Ecoles Chrétiennes" school in Tripoli, for his primary education, then to Aintoura for his secondary education. In 1930, he graduated in law from the Université de Saint-Joseph in Beirut.
