My son is half Jewish.  When he was an infant, he had his circumcism done by the Rabbi with a ritual service.  He is supposed to be a Khan (spelling).  His father and grandfather were Khans, also.  Can you advise me what this is and anything pertaining to it.

Your son is not half-Jewish. He is either Jewish or he is not. You have showed an example for him to raise his children not Jewish and thus ending the tradition that has been kept for thousands of years.
