who was called Gogina or Karakaxi. He was afflicted by illness and died. The
cemetery was far away in Kapareli. At that time, Gogena loaded the deceased on
her back, similar to how women carried barrels of water, and climbed to bury
him alone in Agia Marina, without a priest or relatives.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

of course, moistening him to facilitate decomposition, in a more suitable
place. Later, this woman remarried and took the name Liaroutsos. The village
preserved her story as the legend of Liaroutsena. The conclusion of this story
was written after about 120 years when a bulldozer clearing the way to Agia
Marina brought to the surface the bones of Gogina, the first husband of the
legendary Liaroutsena.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

me that Manhattan is
in need of a Greek-American museum.
The realization came to
me in a roundabout
way, and quite unexpectedly. On a recent
visit to New York City I
was gathering data for
my next book by interviewing Greek-American diner owners. Over
time, I hope to speak to
as many if not all who
have businesses in the
five boroughs. This
time round I managed
to speak with the proprietors of Gee Whiz, Hector’s, Star on 18 in Manhattan and Park Plaza in
Brooklyn and I am gratefully and happily processing the stories they generously shared with
me. But in some cases, especially when I have
no other way of getting in touch other than walking in off the street, diner owners are, understandably, circumspect. They politely decline to
be interviewed, and skillfully brush me off. Their
social skills are the hallmark of their trade and
one of the reasons for the success of the Greeks
in the restaurant business. They can attract customers as easily as they can deter researchers.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">In one diner in Midtown Manhattan the owner
deftly passed me on to the manager, a second
generation Greek-American, who luckily turned
out to be very informative. He shared one particular story that may not sound very special, but it
had a deep impression on me. One day at work
he heard Greek being spoken by a family in one
of the booths and greeted them with ‘ti kanete’
and proceeded to have a conversation in Greek.
They were a Greek immigrant family in Germany
on a tourist visit who were surprised and delighted to come across another Greek in Midtown
Manhattan.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">The reason this story resonated with me is
that I am always on the lookout for signs of a
Greek wherever I visit, whether it’s a storefront
or something grander. I think many share the
thrill of ‘Greek meets Greek’ when we are traveling abroad.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">But why should those looking forward to a
‘Greek meets Greek’ experience in Manhattan
have to rely in happenstance, as was the case
with the family from Germany? The borough had
and still has such an extraordinarily significant
Greek presence over the past century. Forget
about Astoria and its Greektown for a moment –
there is a case to be made about honoring the
Greek legacy on Manhattan island. With the exception of the Greek Orthodox Churches and the
Romaniote Synagogue, as well as the upscale
Greek restaurants that are in full view, the rest
of it remains hidden. It could and should easily
be identified and, why not, visited as well. One
could begin with the old Greek neighborhoods,
such as Washington Heights where Maria Callas
was raised, the Flower District around West 28th
Street, a Greek stronghold decades ago, and especially the strip on Eighth Avenue called
Bouzouki Boulevard because of the Greek owned
nightclubs and eateries, as well as numerous
nearby blocks stretching at least a mile on Ninth
Avenue where many thousands of Greeks lived
and even more from all over New York shopped. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">A number of Greek artists lived and worked
in Manhattan including Chryssa, Aristodemos
Kaldis, Theodoros Stamos, and the abstract
painter Jean Xceron, who worked at the Guggenheim Museum as a security guard. Might one be
able to visit where their studios were or where
they held major exhibits? Manhattan was also
the site where prominent Greek-Americans displayed their creativity and the place they lived.
Filmmaker Elia Kazan started his career in Manhattan, studying at the Julliard School, and his
first national success came as a New York theatrical director. Dimitri Mitropoulos served as the
conductor of the New York Philharmonic between
1948 and 1958. How nice it would be to see a
plaque on the wall outside the buildings Kazan
and Mitropoulos lived, marking their presence
in the city. Buildings are also relevant. The architect Kostas Kondylis designed over 85 buildings
in the city, several of them for Donald Trump, including Trump World Tower which caused controversy because of its height and aesthetic blandness. Another building with Greek connections
is Olympic Tower on 5th Avenue. In the late
1960s and the 1970s one of New York’s most
prominent graffiti artists was known simply as
Taki 183, a name he chose because his first name
was Demetraki and he was born on 183rd Street
in Washington Heights. On a more somber note,
there are the Greek names inscribed in marble at
the 9/11 memorial.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">All this Greek presence in Manhattan, even if
it was recorded by plaques and signage, would
be impossible to take in through a walking tour.
And a bus tour would be out of the question
given the city’s traffic gridlock. The distance from
9/11 to Washington Heights is about ten miles.
Yet all this data could be gathered and displayed
in a museum. There are over 30 museums in
Manhattan as well as numerous cultural institutions that serve as the venues of exhibitions. Their
focus includes the heritage of Asian-, Chinese-,

including pottery, continuously surface during agricultural activities. These
artifacts vary, including compact single-brick pieces used by the Byzantines
for construction, as well as perforated ones similar to those used in drainage
systems. Additionally, pottery, jars, and other household items are found.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In 1931, a plow uncovered a robust ceramic jar with a hole
at the bottom in Antonios Iliopoulos' field. This jar, depicted in the attached
photograph, was possibly used for wine or oil due to the presence of a hole
above its base. The base also features a round protrusion, a characteristic
seen in ancient times to secure jars in storage by placing them on pedestals in
rows.<o:p></o:p></p>

few years later, in the adjacent orchard of Andreas Kantaros and about fifty
meters north of where the above jar was found, the mother of And. Kantaros,
while digging, discovered a tomb. This tomb was ark-shaped, made of stone
slabs, and covered. The skeleton inside the tomb was intact and belonged to a
well-built individual. After a few hours, from the moment it was uncovered, the
bones turned into ashes. Some of the stone slabs from this tomb are still
scattered outside the hut in the orchard where it was found.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style="margin-bottom: 12.0pt; margin-left: 0in; margin-right: 0in; margin-top: 12.0pt;"><span style="color: black; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 11.0pt;">Further
away, 100 to 150 meters to the west from the above tomb and several years
later, in the 1970s, Andreas Kantaros was digging wells in his field to plant
apple trees. His pickaxe encountered resistance in one of these wells. He
cleared the area a bit, revealing large ceramic bricks. Subsequently, a domed
tomb constructed with large ceramic slabs, approximately 0.30 x 0.30 meters in
size, was uncovered. The height of the dome was about 0.50 meters, and the
slabs were double-layered with a tarsani (a mixture of lime, sand, and soil),
so that the external slabs covered the joints of the internal ones. The
skeleton of the deceased was intact and likely belonged to a young person since
they had all their teeth. The deceased faced east, and the tomb was clean and
untouched. Andreas Kantaros, as he told me, was impressed by the sight and
called a couple of neighbors to see. He even told the dentist Bisias in the
village of Zeli to see the beautiful teeth of the deceased. The dentist did not
come, but he advised Kantaros to report it to the archaeological service.
Kantaros did not rush to go to Tripoli. He wanted to finish his work.
Meanwhile, they touched the bones, and they turned into ashes. Thus, they
considered it unnecessary to report it to the Archaeological Service (perhaps
intentionally), resulting in nothing remaining of this tomb. Later on, they
also broke the bricks and discarded them. Nevertheless, the belief that the
deceased was a Christian was strengthened since they faced east, and in this area,
there was a settlement, especially from the Byzantine period.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

to this day, no archaeological research has been conducted, and the owners of
these properties, either due to complete ignorance of the matter or out of fear
that excavations might render their fields useless, have never reported to the
relevant authorities about the ceramics or stone remains that occasionally
surfaced during their plowing. Also, I am not an expert to determine the
chronological period to which these findings belong, but as mentioned earlier,
they confirm that there was a Christian settlement in this location.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

recent trip to
Boston I was
able to visit
two Greek-American
archives. This
is my idea of
having fun,
though these
involve serious business
because such
collections
contain the
materials
through
which we can
preserve our heritage and pass it on to
the younger generations.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">In one of the two archives I visited, I
watched digitized film of the March
25th parade that took place in Manchester, NH in 1966. I also listened to a digitized recording of a New York-based
Greek American radio station mentioning a pro-democracy demonstration during the March 25th parade on 5th Avenue in 1968, the first such parade
under the auspices of the dictatorial
regime established in Greece a year earlier.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Those digitized tapes I found at the
second of my two visits. The first was
no less impressive. It was at the Archbishop Iakovos Library at Hellenic College Holy Cross in Brookline, a suburb
of Boston. With permission from His
Grace Bishop Joachim, the Library Director, I had a tour of the Special Collections and the Archive Room by librarian Hilary Rogler. It was an
overwhelming experience. Those two
rooms contain the histories of the Greek
Church, of Greek Orthodoxy in America,
and of Greek America, in the form of
rare books, church publications, and the
personal papers and collections donated
by Greek-American clergy and academics.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"> The news coming out of Hellenic College Holy Cross has not always been
good. The two schools have faced a series of academic, administrative, and financial challenges over the past few
years and are gradually dealing with
them. But what is indisputably good
news is the richness of the archives in
the Iakovos Library and their usefulness
in preserving the Greek and Orthodox
heritage in America.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">The other archive I visited was completely different. It belongs to an individual rather than an institution and is
housed not in a magnificent building
such as that of the Iakovos Library but
in a small townhouse in Stratham, NH,
just over an hour’s drive north of Boston.
This space, which cannot be more than
1,500 square feet – it was difficult to
judge because of the number of stacked
archival boxes I was climbing over – is
the residence of Meletis Pouliopoulos.
It is also the home of Greek Cultural
Resources, the organization he established for the purpose of obtaining, documenting, preserving, archiving, promoting, and providing access to
recordings of Greek music and relevant
traditions, as well as related publications, manuscripts, images, interviews,
and film/video footage for the benefit
of musicians, folk dance troupes, teaching institutions, scholars, performers,
collectors, and the general public.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">I have written recently of the need
of funding archives and the sacrifices
that Meleti has made and his precarious
financial situation. But during my visit
he was intent on outlining the future,
what could be done if that funding is
ever secured. Pointing to the parcels
stacked up near his front door he explained that very many Greek-Americans who have heard of his work send
him books, magazines, VHS tapes, and
all manner of materials that relate to
their family history or their community.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">All these need to be preserved, and
his work is not simply storing the stuff
in his home, but by digitizing the old
documents which is the best way of anticipating their eventual degradation and
loss. The same applies to old film rolls
and video and audio tapes. Such a
process would cost thousands of dollars,
but Greek Cultural Resources undertakes
that task for free. What is also special
about Meleti’s Greek Cultural Resources
is the advice and help Meleti provides
to institutions that wish to save their history and heritage, as for example the St.
George Greek Orthodox Cathedral Memory Project which has digitized its parish
bulletins going back to 1965. It has also
catalogued its library and is embarking
on a series of interviews with seniors.
Another thing that makes this organization stand out is that it helps, by providing data, again at no cost, to researchers
who need materials for their projects. It
is quite remarkable that an individual
has achieved so much and that he wishes
to help others do the same, to function
as the tide that will lift all boats.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Whether all this work can be continued depends on the support Greek Cultural Resources receives. Symeon Tegos,
Greece’s General Consul in Boston, took
the hour-long journey and visited in
early September. Meleti showed him
around and spoke about his vision and
preservation plan that could benefit
every Greek-American collection in the
United States. The Consul praised the
work on the Consulate’s Facebook page
and is trying to help.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Hopefully Greek America can echo
the Consul’s admiration and also act
upon it. Meleti loses his sunny disposition when he remarks that old papers
go yellow and crumble and old tapes
go brittle and break into little pieces.
Time of is of the essence and this about
our heritage. </span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Alexander Kitroeff is Professor

As part of that experience, it explores the tension Greek immigrants felt between two homelands in the early twentieth-century as they settled in Wyoming. Here, Greek-Americans were often caught between loyalty to their sending culture and patriotism in their receiving country -- the United States. This research evaluates the concepts of transnationalism, cosmopolitanism, and particularity that the immigrant often faces as they wrestle between two identities. The Greeks and Greek Orthodox of Wyoming were and are not isolates in their experiences, but did manage to retain a healthy grasp on their culture, even as they assimilated into the American fabric.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><b><u><span style="font-family: arial;">Names mentioned in book:</span></u></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Anagnostou, Yiorgos</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Beck, Ann Flesnor</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Blappas, Mike</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Callas brothers</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chackas, Peter</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Chipouras, Peter</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Christou, Anastasia</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Complos, Harry</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Constantinou, Stavros T.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Contos, John</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Dounia, Margarita</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Franklis, Mike</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Gage, Nicholas</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Galeotos, Gus</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Galeotos, Helen</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Galeotos, Peter</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Galeotos, Sam</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Galiotis (aka Galeotos) family</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Gallos, W.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Gerasimos, Elias (priest)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Harlaftis (aka Mores)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Iliou, Maria</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Kallas brothers</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Karahal, Argyris</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Karpathakis, Anna</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Kitroeff, Alexander</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Kourelis, Kostis</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Kouris, Pauline</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mandinis, Gus</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mores (aka Harlaftis)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mores, George</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mores, Gus</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mores, Helen</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Nicholas, Gabriel (priest)</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Panopoulos, Panayotis</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Paparides, J.

The book tells the story of a people who for the most part no longer exist and whose identity is a paradox in that it wasn't fully formed until after most Greek Jews had emigrated or been deported and killed by the Nazis.</div><div><br /></div><div>For centuries, Jews lived in areas that are now part of Greece. But Greek Jews as a nationalized group existed in substantial number only for a few short decades--from the Balkan Wars (1912-13) until the Holocaust, in which more than 80 percent were killed. Greece--a Jewish History describes their diverse histories and the processes that worked to make them emerge as a Greek collective. It also follows Jews as they left Greece--as deportees to Auschwitz or émigrés to Palestine/Israel and New York's Lower East Side. In such foreign settings their Greekness was emphasized as it never was in Greece, where Orthodox Christianity traditionally defines national identity and anti-Semitism remains common.</div></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;"><u>TABLE OF

Individuals were to be enumerated in their usual place of residence even though they may not have been at that residence on the night of the enumeration. The head of household was to be recorded first followed by the rest of the members of the household. The forms used for the territories was a simplified version of the regular schedule and enumerators assigned to the Yukon Territory and Northwest Territories were allowed to begin before June 1st. Many people were displaced during this time period, due to the Great Depression, and might be unaccounted for.</span></p>Hellenic Genealogy Geekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06744973938721961056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005093091342763118.post-30672673578015812182023-07-27T20:35:00.002-05:002023-07-28T07:51:33.769-05:00(Wrestler) Jimmy Sarandos: A Lost Golden Greek by Steve Frangos<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhgDp4PWXQ6Caxi597_FJEbQiGvBQ0YVoa5Y52bD_iNglP5S-hegjElqwxXPFY0bXqMtY06HL2P5or1wZU5XNY3aW1sfeM3PHiVH363uNjs_4U-4WS8BGyJC1rQdQAQ6r4Up4QUEGLV7xcnkQSMvBOScUODGFu4AU8poO7wpRE1zIwIbXzOjvM1y5Ck908" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="" data-original-height="373" data-original-width="484" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEhgDp4PWXQ6Caxi597_FJEbQiGvBQ0YVoa5Y52bD_iNglP5S-hegjElqwxXPFY0bXqMtY06HL2P5or1wZU5XNY3aW1sfeM3PHiVH363uNjs_4U-4WS8BGyJC1rQdQAQ6r4Up4QUEGLV7xcnkQSMvBOScUODGFu4AU8poO7wpRE1zIwIbXzOjvM1y5Ck908" width="311" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Historical Commentary on wrestler "Jimmy Sarandos: A Lost Golden Greek" written by Steve Frangos and published in The National Herald, July 8, 2023.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-family: arial;">Several years ago, we were lucky enough to get permission from The National Herald to repost articles that are of interest to our group.</span></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-family: arial;">----------</span></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Even a preliminary review of the
Greek immigrant amateur and professional athletes clearly documents the
presence of literally dozens of individuals beginning in the mid-to-late
1800s. Undoubtedly each and every
one expected success in their future.
Yet, as one might imagine, not all
achieved the kind of fame and fortune
they expected once they reached American shores. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">A nineteen-year-old Demetrios
Sarandopoulos arrived in Boston harbor in early April, 1936. Young Sarandopoulos was brought here by Dr.
George Cyrus of Boston, who had traveled through Greece and Turkey looking for a young Greek wrestler he could
promote. Sarandopoulos was his discovery. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Upon his arrival Sarandos immediately went into training. While already
a well-established Greco-Roman
wrestler in Europe Sarandopoulos began training in the American catch-as-catch-can style of wrestling. At that moment in time Sarandopoulos stood
5-foot, 101/2-inches tall and weighed
238-pounds. The young Greek was no
novice, having defeated 153 journeymen wrestlers “winning the Graeco-Roman and Balkan State titles in Europe”
(Evening Star (Washington DC) November 29, 1936). At the moment
Sarandopoulos stepped onto American
shores the young wrestler had never
lost a match.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">With hardly a lost moment Sarandopoulos debuted in Boston Gardens
on Friday April 15 against Hermie Olson, a well-respected wrestler of the
day (Boston Globe May 12, 1936).
Sarantos easily won his first match.
Sports writers immediately dubbed
Sarandopoulos as a ‘Golden Greek’ and
within no time predicted the young
good-looking Greek would be ‘the next
Londos.’ </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Events moved quickly around the
young wrestler. At some point, and not
long after his arrival, Sarandopoulos
parted company with Dr. Cyrus and
sometime in late November, 1936 had
a new manager, Freddie Morandos.
One of the points that may have caused
a rift between Cyrus and Sarandopoulos was the young wrestler’s surname.
Dr. Cyrus wanted to change it: “Sarandos (is) not a good professional name,
you’ll be Jimmy Poulos in America”
(Boston Globe 12 May 1936). </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">This was around the same time period that another Greek immigrant
boxer – and one also then found in the
Boston area – Fanis Tzanetopoulos refused to change his name because
American sports writers as well as
newspaper type-setters did not like it.
Sarandopoulos ignored the negative
press and like Tzanetopoulos kept his
name, just a shortened version for the
public press.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i><b><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></b></i></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Whatever else may have been occupying the sportswriters and typesetters,
Jimmy Sarandos was an immediate
wrestling success. In 1936, young
Sarandos won 14 matches with 2
matches judged a draw out of total of
16 to 18 matches (c.f.
wrestlingdata.com). In 1937, Sarandos
won 21 matches and 5 draws out of
26 matches, so the young Greek was
clearly on the fast track to success. The
daily press had a field day with the
new champion, bestowing a jumble of
honorific nicknames upon him such as:
the ‘Golden Greek’, the ‘Greek Hercules’
and my personal favorite: the ‘Greek
Tarzan’. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">To be sure, Sarandos was not the
only Greek wrestler who has ever been
given a ring-side nickname. John
Maxos was also known as a ‘Greek Hercules’. John Kostos, John Tolos, and
even Jim Londos were all referred to
in the daily press, now and again, as
the ‘Greek Tarzan’. Individual-specific
nicknames also followed specific athletes. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">But the issue of acceptable names
never went away. Instead it got racist.
One example is typical of these public
press slurs, “Jim Wallis, the husky former Holy Cross football player who is
to tackle ‘Chimney’ Sarandos, the
‘Greek Tarzan,’ in one of the 30-min”
(Hartford Courant 31 March 1937). </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Just as with the dialect-comedians
of this same era, it was a commonplace to make fun of Greek-Americans
via public forums such as the daily
press by including in the text or so called humorous radio or theater stage
performances grossly mispronounced
words the way American’s heard (or
maintained they heard) them, in the
manner of a Greek immigrant’s typical
mispronunciation. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">In 1936, Sarandos had 14 wrestling
bout wins, 2 draws and no defeats.
Next year, in 1937, Sarandos won 21
wrestling matches and 5 draws. Then,
in 1938, young Sarandos had 17 wins,
2 draws and 6 defeats. While all these
matches were taking place sports writers were touting young Sarandos as
‘the next Londos.’ But then in 1939, as
far as the record books show, Sarandos
had only 4 wins, 2 draws, 1 defeat and
one tragic life changing experience. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Sports writer Al Williams devoted
his entire May 9, 1939 column to the
events that soon engulfed Demetrios
Sarandos’ life (Santa Barbara NewsPress May 9, 1939). Here are just fragments from that longer, much more detailed account. Sarandos "was motoring to Bakersfield with Millard Rauh (a wrestling manager) …
and Jumbo Kennedy, 475-pound grappler. They were traveling by night …
They were only a few miles from Bakersfield when disaster struck. A lone
driver … swerved to pass a truck and
crashed into the wrestler’s car. Kennedy
and Rauh were hurt, but not seriously,
and they went over to the other car…
[only to find the other driver dead] …
”</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The account continues: “Where’s the
Greek? Asked Kennedy, looking back
at [their] wrecked car, still standing on
the highway. Kennedy and Rauh started
back toward their own car, but before
they could [get there yet another car]
roared down the highway and smacked
into the wreck ... When they pulled
Sarandos out he was discovered to be
seriously hurt and lay for weeks in a
Bakersfield hospital. Finally he seemed
to have recovered, left the hospital, and
resumed his trade, wrestling.” </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">And here is where everything began
to unravel for Sarandos. In a match
with Jack Washburn (d 1958) Sarandos
was so weakened Washburn “finally
jumped through the ropes” and basically refused to continue. “Once everyone was back stage Washburn gave the
athletic commission inspector an earful
saying in part, “don’t let that gut
wrestler anymore, he’ll kill himself.
He’s paralyzed in one side and can
hardly retain his balance in there.” The
inspector lost little time recommending
that Sarandos be denied a license.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As an added blow the State Department informed Sarandos his visa had
expired and that he had to go back to
Greece. Sarandos managed to stall
them off for a while by getting a job in
Salt Lake City. In his off-hours Sarandos
began riding a bicycle to strengthen his
injured left leg. But misfortune seems
to have singled the young Greek out,
for one day a car hit Sarandos while
he was on his bicycle, breaking, once
again, his already injured leg. Sarandos
was subsequently deported. So ends Al
Williams’ report on the ill-fated Sarandos. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As if to add insult to injury Sarandos, was not just deported but he was
sent to Istanbul, the port from which
he and Dr. Cyrus had originally departed from for Ameriki (Salt Lake Tribune January 22, 1940). </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As the public record documents,
Demetrios Sarandopoulos was without
a doubt among the most outstanding
Golden Greek wrestlers of his era. This
fine athlete should be remembered for
what he accomplished and not for the
injustice Fate bestowed upon him.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><p></p>Hellenic Genealogy Geekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06744973938721961056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005093091342763118.post-55940766075981336842023-06-18T13:17:00.000-05:002023-06-18T13:17:39.562-05:00Article: "Wills of the Greek Orthodox Subjects of the Sultan: an Insight into the Everyday Life of the Ottoman Empire's Orthodox Communities"<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy_0NMPs80YxKp5ZgdoSKlThG2GbYT_PaSC7QMb6Jju4wR4IA2cy_fqr0Rxzevzco0R58UO4hSnnhaFk3ITWCoabLAyecPQ5hx7WCUFMD8AI-400U4r8hlJKWnAl_EYKf8ACEYMOzVuPLnrUshauBLf-8ZR_BCRYZfLGtXjoTPIy1d8iKeNlvmxvlw/s568/Screenshot%202023-06-18%20095815.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="568" data-original-width="451" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjy_0NMPs80YxKp5ZgdoSKlThG2GbYT_PaSC7QMb6Jju4wR4IA2cy_fqr0Rxzevzco0R58UO4hSnnhaFk3ITWCoabLAyecPQ5hx7WCUFMD8AI-400U4r8hlJKWnAl_EYKf8ACEYMOzVuPLnrUshauBLf-8ZR_BCRYZfLGtXjoTPIy1d8iKeNlvmxvlw/s320/Screenshot%202023-06-18%20095815.jpg" width="254" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">This article is FREE to read through Academia.edu - you may need to setup a free account using your email address.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Article: <b>"Wills of the Greek Orthodox Subjects of the Sultan: an Insight into the Everyday Life of the Ottoman Empire's Orthodox Communities"</b> - <a href="https://www.academia.edu/78731164/Wills_of_the_Greek_Orthodox_Subjects_of_the_Sultan_an_Insight_into_the_Everyday_Life_of_the_Ottoman_Empire_s_Orthodox_Communities">https://www.academia.edu/78731164/Wills_of_the_Greek_Orthodox_Subjects_of_the_Sultan_an_Insight_into_the_Everyday_Life_of_the_Ottoman_Empire_s_Orthodox_Communities</a></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">by Evi Psarrou, MS, Ph.D.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Department of Philosophy, University of Patras - Greece</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Abstract from the article:</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The present study reveals certain aspects of the social and cultural history of Chios, an Aegean island under Ottoman rule,
through archival material of the 19th century. The information mostly derives from will documents that allow us to understand as much
as possible the structure of the local society, the daily life of the inhabitants, their way of thinking and perception of life, as well as their
relationship and ties with their family members. Finally the position of the Ottoman Government towards the local Christian
institutions, accepting and sanctioning their operation at a local level, is also revealed. </span></div><br /><p></p>Hellenic Genealogy Geekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06744973938721961056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005093091342763118.post-62659358588251664702023-06-15T13:34:00.000-05:002023-06-15T13:34:12.450-05:00614 Greeks mentioned in book “Uncovering the History of the Albuquerque Greek Community – 1880-1952” (New Mexico)<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfDDHP6I_921eci3-orYzzV6ssGSjcRW4WoifygUV4feqLcpd8T-YjP0B-FMqy8owy5bfKd14yDiXsdVmaxKr9c9gJXB87I0-ySbC8CU1TndUOTUsJFb8dHB3u5WWSMhw0y3x-F4w-RNZ4El-wKB7Ssm8eElSdPr9u3QbMaQ183ew9-08GEp0Y7dJ2/s499/Book%20Cover%20-%20Albuquerque%20NM.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="499" data-original-width="333" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhfDDHP6I_921eci3-orYzzV6ssGSjcRW4WoifygUV4feqLcpd8T-YjP0B-FMqy8owy5bfKd14yDiXsdVmaxKr9c9gJXB87I0-ySbC8CU1TndUOTUsJFb8dHB3u5WWSMhw0y3x-F4w-RNZ4El-wKB7Ssm8eElSdPr9u3QbMaQ183ew9-08GEp0Y7dJ2/s320/Book%20Cover%20-%20Albuquerque%20NM.jpg" width="214" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Book – “Uncovering the History of the Albuquerque Greek Community – 1880-1952” by Katherine M.

Why did they eventually migrate to a small dusty town in the desert Southwest? How did Albuquerque become a center of Greek-America in the 1930s? And how did the decision to build the church in 1944 in the Huning Highland originate from a tragic event? This book answers these questions and more. It also details the compassionate response of the community to the appearance of Greek ''lungers'' seeking the cure to the ravages of tuberculosis, and traces the decision to establish in 1937 in Albuquerque the Nation's only Greek-American tuberculosis sanatorium. This book begins with the first Greeks coming, at the turn of the nineteenth century, to Albuquerque with the railroad. It details how they began immigrating to the town in large numbers after the First World War, and shows how, by the 1920s, these indomitable men owned and operated numerous businesses in the heart of new Albuquerque. It also shows how their brides made their own unique contribution by transforming the Greek population into a community. They assimilated into the United States and contributed to Albuquerque's ethnic and cultural diversity. This country gave them opportunity, and in turn, they gave their best.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><u>TABLE OF CONTENTS</u></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Independence, Then What?</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Crossing the Ocean to America</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Finding the Jobs</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The West and Albuquerque</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Who Was Here, New Mexico Censuses, 1880-1940</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">What Were They Doing, Albuquerque City Directories, 1880-1952</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Greek Immigrants in Search of Health</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Ahepa Sanatorium</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Acquiring United States Citizenship</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Women and Their Community</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">St. George Greek Orthodox Church</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Ledger, the Church’s Financial History</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Greek Organizations of St. George Orthodox Church</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Greek-Americans and the Wars</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Post-War Generation</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Another Patrida</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><b><u>GREEK NAMES MENTIONED IN BOOK</u></b></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Ades, George D.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Alex, Gus James</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Alexopoulos, C.

Sparta, Greece. No one knew
what brought Mr. Vurnakes to
Raleigh; like so many other of his
fellow citizens, he pursued the
American dream, a dream which
brought immigrants from all
parts of Europe to discover a better life. Greeks were among the
first immigrants who crossed the
Atlantic to get their first glimpse
of the Statue of Liberty and Ellis
Island, the customary landing
and processing point for incoming immigrants from Europe.
With great ambition, they
brought varying degrees of introductory knowledge to the new
world, for they were here to build
their livelihoods. So why did Mr.
Vurnakes come to a small southern town of only 13,000 people?
We can assume that Raleigh offered a better climate, similar to
what he was accustomed in
Greece. Many other immigrants,
with their families from New York
and Chicago, made the journey
and soon also arrived in Raleigh,
NC.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">According to the annals, Mr.
Vurnakes was the proprietor of
the California Fruit Stand near
the state capital. Those early settlers became highly active in the
Community but missed having a
church in which to worship. Most
early comers arrived without specific skills as we know today, primarily due to the lack of education in their homeland. Jobs were mainly found involving manual
labor. With time, their ambition
for a better life guided them to
learn English and entrepreneurial
skills. They turned to restaurants,
candy making, tailoring, Vegetable stands, food markets, and
cleaning establishments.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">By 1924, the Greek families of
Raleigh were yearning for their
faith and decided the time had
come to establish their church.
The first service was held in April
1924 on the second floor of a grocery store. The church, or hall, as
it was known then, was located
on S. Salisbury Street.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Greek community met on
Salisbury Street for four years before moving again to an upstairs
hall on South Blount Street, again
over a small grocery store. As the
community grew, it soon became
apparent that a larger church was
needed.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">In October 1935, Rev. Elias
Skipitary was challenged to organize and build a Church with the
blessing of the Greek Orthodox
Archdiocese of North and South
America. By 1937 when the
church was erected on Pearson
Street, Raleigh had grown to a
population of 25,000, and the
church now numbered 25 families. </span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">In May of 1975, a new church
was built on Lead Mine Road of
Raleigh to accommodate the
growth of the incoming Orthodox
parishioners. </span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Today, under the religious
leadership of ‘Proistamenos’ Fr.
Paul N. Christy, 400 family members worship and support the
Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox
Church of Raleigh. The current
facility space presents many accommodations constraints for the
rapidly growing church membership, however.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The community’s plans are set
in motion for a larger Church on
the existing land, optimistically
in the next two to three years.
The Greek Orthodox faithful
parishioners and many other nonGreek members of the Orthodox
faith enthusiastically support this
campaign. On Sunday, February
19, at the Marriott Hotel of
Raleigh, 382 church members celebrated the official opening of the
fundraising campaign for the new
church building. For detailed information on the new church
building campaign and contributions, please contact The Holy
Trinity Greek Orthodox Church,
5000 Lead Mine Rd. Raleigh, NC.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Greek Orthodox church is
the center of community life in
the United States, and almost all
dioceses, parishes, and churches
are under the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of the Archdiocese of
America, an autonomous self governing church within the
sphere of influence of the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople and New Rome. The Synod
of the Ecumenical Patriarch elects
the archbishop, and the Ecumenical Patriarch remains the guiding
light in all matters of faith. The
Archdiocese was founded in 1922
and is located in New York City.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">The Holy Trinity Church of
Raleigh features a rich culture of
customs and rituals passed down
from generation to generation.
The community's pride is the orthodox religion, faith in God, the
Greek language, traditions,
Philoptochos, AHEPA, youth, and
many other benevolent ministries.
The tight-knit family structure,
faith in God, and community love
have been essential. As a result,
many family traditions and celebratory religious events continue
to thrive. A more accommodating
church building will complete all
of that.</span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div style="color: #212121;"><span style="font-family: arial;">More information about Holy

time, I heard ‘the legend of the lynched
Greek’ I was a teenager. Since, that
time the tale of this youth has been
told to me many times. As this legend
goes, the so-called lynched Greek was
an immigrant from the 1880 to 1920
waves who was hung by the Ku Klux
Klan. The way the story always unfolded was the Greek-American speaker
had himself/herself been told a Greek
youth had somehow offended or challenged the Ku Klux Klan and so had
been hung. But the teller of this tale
never really knew much more. I was
always reassured that I could and
should learn more about this fallen and
forgotten hero. And I tried. But it was
a huge circle. First either the GreekAmerican I spoke to knew this account
or they didn’t and would then ask me
about it. Or, “oh, yes,” they had heard
of this youth and were told it was real
event. But then, no matter who I spoke
with nothing more was known.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As the years passed and I traveled
around the country I began to notice
that it was more often than not an
Ahepan who both recalled this tale,
and given my interest in Greek-American history, it was an incident I should
investigate. The last time I was told a
version of this tale was, now, roughly
two years ago in Tarpon Springs,
Florida. In the retail district of Tarpon
Springs is a fairly sizable parking lot.
And I was told this same land used to
be a green-park with trees and benches
where in times past Greeks gathered
at night. Just across the street, to the
north, from this area was a lamp post.
And it was there, I was told, that long ago a Greek youth had been hung for
all to see. I asked the teller of this tale,
who is a life-long resident of Tarpon,
the identity of this youth and predictably there was no answer. All that
was said was that upon information
and belief, it was a true eye-witness
account.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I’ve taken the time to outline this
oft-told tale, not simply because I’ve
heard of this supposed person and
event for years, but because there are
Greek immigrants who without a doubt
lived, worked, and were killed in North
America at the hands of white racists
who outside of reports at the time of
their deaths are no longer a part of
Greek-American historical accounts. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">To my mind, the two individuals
that should be among the very first to
be recalled are Nick Tommick and Nick Lonpakis. Identified as two Greeks who
during the 1914 Coal War in Colorado
had “fallen in the fighting about
Aguilar (El Paso Herald April 27,
1914).” They are mentioned repeatedly
in the news accounts not only surrounding this historic labor dispute but
in every single report on the funeral
services for Louis Tikas.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Born Elias Anastasios Spantidakis
(March 13, 1886-April 20, 1914) Tikas
was the leader of the Ludlow camp of
striking miners. All published accounts,
documentaries, and articles that I have
seen to date on the 1914 Coal Strike
features Tikas as the lone hero. I am not
denying this man’s role in these historic
events. But there were many many others who were involved in the protracted
and historically significant events that
taken collectively, compose this specific
moment in American labor history.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Added to all this issue of names is
that the Greek who sometimes carried
the name Lonpakis to his grave also
had his last name spelled as ‘Lenfiakis’
and ‘Lonfiakis’ in the American 1914
newspapers that reported on his death
and then funeral. Today, regrettably,
the strike that resulted in the deaths of
literally dozens of people over a considerable period of time and fighting
across the state of Colorado has been reduced to the death of Louis Tikas. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Between 1907 and 1923, Greeks
fought and were seriously injured or
at times just outright killed at the hands
of Americans each and every year.
When searching over newspaper accounts for this time period there are
two phrases that mean essentially the
same thing in descriptions of a deadly
physical conflict between Greek immigrants and the Americans around them.
In reading newspaper accounts from
this time period be aware of the following. As the reporting goes an ‘antiGreek riot’ is when the Americans attack the Greeks while ‘a Greek riot’
means the Greek immigrants attacked
Americans for some prior offense.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Another aspect to this seventeen
year period not recognized in current
Greek-American historical accounts is
that many of the anti-Greek riots were
prompted by the arrival of escaping
Greek immigrant refugees seeking asylum in a different town or city. Escaping
their attackers in say south Omaha various Greeks ended up in Council Bluffs,
Dayton Ohio and elsewhere. Yet once
the escaping Greeks arrived in these
locations it did not take long for local
Americans to not only attack the newly
arriving Greeks but the local Greeks as
well. According to the report in the North Nebraska Eagle news account
some 300 Greeks were almost immediately randomly “rounded up” in the
general Council Bluffs area (March 5,
1909).</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Oh, another point that is for the
most part passed by are the financial
losses not simply of the local Omaha
Greeks but that non-Greek Americans
experienced due to the uncontrolled
nature of a riot. One account titled
‘Some Losses Caused by the Riot’ lists
a long series of losses to Omaha nonGreeks as well as Greeks such as the
“Atlantic Hotel $350; Magic City Realty
Co. owner of Maftein’s saloon $300”
and so on (Omaha Daily News 24 Feb
1909). For those new to this line of research, for years after the Omaha attack on Greeks a wide array of articles
with names and itemized figures appear on how much various Greeks and
non-Greeks are due because of the massive destruction. Quite a number of
later news reports involve the federal
government inquiring (but never doing
anything) about having these assessed
damages paid.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Actually the pattern was set in the
1907 anti-Greek riot (which also involved local Syrian immigrants) in
Roanoke, Virginia when a dispute over
the added five cents cost for a pickle
on a sandwich blew up into a city-wide
conflict. Local officials went after the
American-born rioters because the fires
they set that initially burned Greek and
Syrian businesses got out of control
and burned down other sections of the
city. Later news reports on Roanoke’s
anti-Greek/anti-Syrian riot frequently
focus on the losses to American residents of the city. </span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">How did I learn of all these linked
events? I looked.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Dozens of innocent Greek immigrants died due not simply to racism
but dangerous working conditions and
a long host of other real world circumstances and events. Teasing apart the
historical record to locate, identify, and
honor these fallen individuals should
be among our foremost concerns in exploring and searching for our collective
Greek-American history. We don’t need
some legend of a hung Greek. We don’t
even need to single out Louis Tikas.

A dozen tiny boats were putting out to sea, bound for the sponge beds of Greece and North Africa. Each boat carried from eight to twenty men — the famed sphoungarades (sponge divers) of Kalymnos.

After all the Kalymnians have endured — disaster and pain beneath the sea, starvation and oppression above it — it is ironic that their way of life should be threatened by a well-meaning scientist who discovered how to spin a synthetic sponge. That his sponges are not much good doesn’t matter: they are cheap to produce; housewives buy them....."</div></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="background-color: #f3fdfe; clear: both;"><span style="background-color: white;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #212121; font-family: arial; font-size: 15px;"><span style="color: #0a0a0a;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.72px;"><br /></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; color: #212121; font-family: arial; font-size: 15px;"><span style="color: #0a0a0a;"><span style="letter-spacing: 0.72px;"><b>READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE:</b></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #37afc0; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.72px;"><b>https://www.the-athenian.com/site/1974/08/30/the-sponge-divers-of-kalymnos/</b></span></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><span style="color: #37afc0; font-family: arial;"><span style="font-size: 15px; letter-spacing: 0.72px;"><b><br /></b></span></span></div></span></div></div>Hellenic Genealogy Geekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06744973938721961056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005093091342763118.post-87801804316219214762023-01-09T10:21:00.003-06:002023-01-09T10:29:21.867-06:00457 names listed from book "SWEET GREEKS – First Generation Immigrant Confectioners in the Heartland"<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPMFAt71YAYDJSf1tol0YlNsgWuAr8X1MPkjG42i2Af9riO7NTxDIv0dKhJdU3VsXHrA1D-B95N7VapZzoSvtPwVk9G2AazO8i0ctccSWBtdJ89nW_tvsWIxC0qa4vanrdvBi-esMsQtCalDf6jAyOxD980sh_wEXrCLOyRJU7clApoaee_zZ3ohDz/s1000/Sweet%20Greeks.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1000" data-original-width="662" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPMFAt71YAYDJSf1tol0YlNsgWuAr8X1MPkjG42i2Af9riO7NTxDIv0dKhJdU3VsXHrA1D-B95N7VapZzoSvtPwVk9G2AazO8i0ctccSWBtdJ89nW_tvsWIxC0qa4vanrdvBi-esMsQtCalDf6jAyOxD980sh_wEXrCLOyRJU7clApoaee_zZ3ohDz/w212-h320/Sweet%20Greeks.jpg" width="212" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: arial;">The book “Sweet Greeks – First Generation Immigrant Confectioners

the Midwest.</span><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 10.5pt;"><span style="color: #0f1111;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Ann Flesor Beck's charming personal account
recreates the atmosphere of her grandfather's candy kitchen with its odors of
chocolate and popcorn and the comings-and-goings of family members. "The

would take over the business.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 10.5pt;"><span style="color: #0f1111;"><span style="font-family: arial;">An engaging blend of family memoir and Midwest
history, <i>Sweet Greeks</i> tells how Greeks became candy makers to
the nation, one shop at a time.<o:p></o:p></span></span></p>

On our first trip to Skyros, newly arrived, Saturday evening, all our enquiries about the return boat to Kymi on Monday (Kathari Deftera/CIean Monday) were met with evasive smiles, and a vague “Well maybe, but then again maybe not!” In the event, the ticket office remained stubbornly closed until Monday evening, and the rickety Anemoessa (now in semi-retirement on a trunk line in the Dodecanese and replaced by the possibly more punctual Lykomedes) didn’t run. This, it turned out, was not entirely due to snow…</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">For much longer than anyone can remember, throughout Apokries, but especially on Tyrinis, or Cheese Sunday – so-called as it is the last day on which cheese may be eaten before Lent begins on Kathari (Clean) Monday – the young men of Skyros have dressed up, or disguised themselves (the Greek metamphiezo carries both meanings) as yen, literally ‘old men’. The most striking feature of their dress, which transforms them from man into half-beast, is the mask: the skin of a still-born kid, pulled up over the face with two eyeholes cut, the head dangling like a sort of trunk on the wearer’s chest. Around the head and torso is worn the traditional black Macedonian woollen shepherd’s jacket, inside (hairy-side) out, with a pillow or rags stuffed up the back to give an appearance of a hump. The hood is secured with a long white shepherd’s belt, knotted at the back and crossed over at the shoulders, the two ends joined at the front with a colorful handkerchief. By means of ropes, as many as 70 or 80 copperplated goat bells (depending on the stamina of the wearer) are attached around the yeros’ waist, suspended from the wooden collar, with the larger bells at the back and the smaller ones at the front. On his legs, the yeros wears traditional white woollen trousers, white leggings, and trohadia, thonged Skyrian shepherd’s sandals, very reminiscent of ancient Greek sandals except that, nowadays, the sole is often, more practically perhaps, made from an old car tire rather than leather. No yeros’ costume is complete without the shepherd’s crook, which he uses to steady himself or to juggle in the air and poke at onlookers."........</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://www.the-athenian.com/site/1992/03/01/the-goatmen-and-women-of-skyros/" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-family: arial;">READ THE ENTIRE ARTICLE</span></b></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><br /><p></p>Hellenic Genealogy Geekhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06744973938721961056noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5005093091342763118.post-59678663651645017932022-12-02T17:57:00.002-06:002022-12-03T09:56:46.408-06:00"Cretan Leather" (tsagaris) Cretan maker of boots - article published in The Athenian, 1992<p> </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMZgUxZhdIlvzgrcgvtUtJevRIXauIuRS3oGzmQPFfLidg0QxqfxpzmfkcQmJyhsdsA8xVHgxkY-EQJH8ftJypb58KxmAp6NABdrxH_BksNmczTswZ-VynyOz_791Qm5eoMi8fg_M4hyujtvSgkh1RLTqezzLSP42ZN152I2tDoERhRiXMP9O9Mg_f/s1059/Cretan%20Leather%20loannis-Markoulakis.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="830" data-original-width="1059" height="314" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiMZgUxZhdIlvzgrcgvtUtJevRIXauIuRS3oGzmQPFfLidg0QxqfxpzmfkcQmJyhsdsA8xVHgxkY-EQJH8ftJypb58KxmAp6NABdrxH_BksNmczTswZ-VynyOz_791Qm5eoMi8fg_M4hyujtvSgkh1RLTqezzLSP42ZN152I2tDoERhRiXMP9O9Mg_f/w400-h314/Cretan%20Leather%20loannis-Markoulakis.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://www.the-athenian.com/site/1992/12/01/cretan-leather/" target="_blank"><b><span style="font-family: arial;">CRETAN LEATHER</span></b></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">by Ann Elder, published in The Athenian, December 1, 1992</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><br /></span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><span style="font-family: arial;">"<span style="background-color: white; color: #0a0a0a; letter-spacing: 0.72px;">The tourist explosion based on charter flight holidaymaking in western Crete in the last decade is significantly prolonging the life of the traditional Cretan leather industry.
