Hi Georgia,
ReplyDeleteI've been meaning to contact you regarding The Tsintzina Society. Peter W. Dickson wrote a chapter in "New Directions in Greek American Studies" by Georgakas and Moskos entitled: “The Greek Pilgrims: Tsakonas and Tsintzinians." Have you heard of us?
Hi Kathryn - I am so glad you sent me the link to the website "The Tsintzina Society". I have included it on the list of uncategorized links that will be sent out later today. I notice that there is a notation that the Society is looking to collect genealogy information on these families. If you do add that feature or update with any other features that you think are important, please contact me again. I will update the information on your site. Thanks again, I always get excited when I see the amount of work that has gone into preserving our Greek heritage.
