I am one of four daughters of Mary Combes/Coombes (Maiden name). Her parents were Anastasios & Spiridoula Combes/Coombes. They immigrated in 1924 on the 'Largs Bay'. They spent their first few years at Tenterfield with Anastasios' brother, George. George, the eldest of 4 brothers had first immigrated in 1912, and had owned the Paragon Cafe in Tenterfield. If you have any information on my family, I would be glad to hear about it!

Gina, daughter of Markos and Helen Kalocerinos, married Felix ........, from Holland. Evangalia and her husband Con (Tzortzo)Poulos, were very good friends with Markos and Helen Kalocerinos. They have lived in Holland for a number of decades, but visit Kythera regularly. Mum had journeyed to Kythera for a number of months, and lived in the Tzorzopoulos patriko spitti in Karavas. Felix and family visited Envangalia there often.
All her relatives and friends will vouch for the fact that she was absolutely passionate about the game of domino's. She was the "Queen of the table" when domino's was being played in her home - the Tzortzopoulos patriko spitti - Karavas.

Her one dream was that all the properties pass in tact to all the descendants ...
