Steve,

I am pleased to report that I have located the details of your grandparents' marriage in 1916. By dowry contract dated 29 September 1916, Mihail Haralambous Sitzimis was betrothed to Anastasia Apostolou Poulou. The wedding apparently took place on Castellorizo 4 months later.

Both parties are recorded as being originally from Kalamaki in Anatolia and the house given by the bride's family by way of dowry was also located there.

Nicholas,

Thank you very much for all your help. I really appreciate it. Also my father's family came from Kastellorizo. His name was Kostas Alvanos and his father's name was Theocharis, and his mother's name was Anna. If you have any other information you could provide me I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks again! You really made my day!

Steve,

I have already opened a separate thread for the Kyriakou/Alvanos connection.
