In the Wedding Photo in 1929, there are many people with the surname Passaris. Are any of them related to Irini Passaris? I know this is a common name, so I don't expect them to be related, but you never know.
Thanks everyone for helping me. Cheers Levis

Levis,
Which Irini Passaris are you referring to? As the Passaris clan is quite large, there was/is more than one Castellorizian woman with that name.
Please give me her full maiden name and her husband's name and I'll see what I can find.
Nicholas

Hi Nicholas, I am referring to Evangelos Gravas wife Irini Passaris. She was born about 1865 and I think her father might have been Yiorgios Passaris, but I am not sure. Sorry, I should have been more specific.
Thanks Levis

Hi Michelle
You asked a question re Stavros Passaris arriving Fremantle 1914 on the Marcou thread and I am replying here.
The indexes list a Mr L Passaris arriving on the ship "Gorgon" on 20 Dec 1914. I am sure it is him. Nationality Greek and Passport No. 76 is recorded in comments. Someone would have misread an initial "S" as an "L" quite easily on the shipping documents. There is no one with the surname Passaris and a first name starting with "L" that I know of arriving those early years.
Stavros caught the ship from Singapore which was quite common in those days. They would travel from Port Said to say Singapore on a ship with that destination then get another ship heading to Australia.
I can not find any details of him arriving on his first occasion (c1896) to go to the WA Goldfields but most arrived through Darwin in those earlier days, then caught a local ship down to Perth, Albany or Esperance.
Hope this helps Allan

Hi, my grandfather was Stavros Passaris. His sons were George, Eric and Alexander, my father. Is this the same Stavros Passaris? His wife was Despina,after whom I was named.
