i was there just after earthquake to see my aunt in potamas
my farther came from karavas his name Christos kypriou
my farther came karavas his name in the vilage was Chistos Kypriou
I visited Kythera in January of 2006 with my two grandchildren, Nicole and Nick. We stayed at the 9 Muses Guest House in Agia Pelagia. We visited with friends and distant relatives in Potamos (my mother's home village), roamed about the fields and beaches during the 5 days we were there. I attended church in the village of Karavas and took part in communion. We visited with Mr. & Mrs. Emanuel Pavlakis in Potamos. Very nice people, distant relatives thru my grandmother. I intend to return within the next few years to study further this enchanting island. We experienced a 6.9 earthquake on January 8 while waiting for our lunch to be prepared. Luckily for us we were not hurt, however, if it had hit land rather than in the sea, I know we wouldn't have survived. I loved the quiet nature of the island, no hussle bustle here. We experienced the priets throwing the cross into the water and the young boys diving in to search for it on St. Stephanos Day. We will return!
Is a great pleasure to see ,all those things.Bravo....to all kythirians who took part of this.

born in karavas
My grandfather and grandmother are Dimitrios and Yarifalia Kritharis from Karavas. They had 4 children Voula, Anthie, Nick and Maria. My great Uncle was Haralambos Kritharis and he came to Australia and lived in Brisbane Australia. My Uncle Nick also lived in Brisbane Australia, he died 5 years ago. My Aunty Anthie married Tasos Zacharopoulos and had one child John they live in Sydney Australia. My Aunty Voula lives in Greece with her family. My mother Maria Kritharis from came to Australia and at the time was living with my Nouna Anthie Notaras when she met my father George Hadsis (from Samos) and married. They had 3 children John, Effie and Rose. John Hadsis lives in Perth with his family, I live in Sydney with my family and my sister lives in Canberra with her family and my father and mother.
My name is Alex Crethar. My father was Nicholas Crethar (He changed his name from Kritharis). He had a brother who migrated to America his name was Haralambos. For the purposes of family history. I would appreciate if you could let me know if there is any relationship there. My father was born in the late 1800's and migrated to Australia around 1918. He served in the Greek Military. If this is your family line - any information you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Everytime i visit Kythera i am overcome with a strong emotion of belonging. This same emotion is present when i visit this website.Great effort to all involved in establishing and maintaining this fascinating and mystic record of our history.
This is really a job well done, the website is a way for one like my self, to feel at home and keep in touch with Kythera, Greece and her children, I feel often nostalgic in this part of the world (Denmark) as I have no family, apart from my husband and 2 daughters, and there are not many Greeks living here and if so than I have not met any. What I really want to say is, thank you and keep up the good work.
SYNXARITIRIA ! yperoxi istoselida. WOW this site is fantastic. Let me know if you need help
IT`S GOOD TO BE A KYTHERIAN.
A fascinating website already.My father Evangelos (Angelo)Diacopoulos migrated to Australia in 1914 and married Marigoula Aroney in 1938 and they spent their working lives in Gosford before moving to Sydney but of course as most kytherians, always regarded Cerigo as their spiritual home.Some of that has rubbed off on their offspring.May the site continue to grow!
