Here is now what we know on the descendants of a Captain Minas Panaretos and his wife Fotini Melitas. Additions, Corrections, Comments are welcome. Also anyone going to Kythera this month if you hear any of these names while you are there I would appreciate very much if someone could tell me. I know for a fact that there cousins of mine in Trifylianika Vasiliki (Trifillis) Gerakitis/Gerakites and her children, grandchildren, etc. Any info on them or on anyone else mentioned below would be an enormous help.
