Letter from son to mother - almost certainly containing money.

Letter from son to mother - almost certainly containing money.
Copyright (1960)

The most typical of Kytherian documents in the 20th century.

A registered letter from Australia, from a son to his mother - almost certainly containing money (why bother registering a conversational letter) - to help sustain the family in Karavas, Kythera.

Posted, 23rd April, 1960.

From: George Levantis, then at, 126 Auburn Street in Goulburn, NSW, where he conducted a fruit shop business for many years.

To: His mother Katina Levantis, in Karavas, Kythera, Greece.

Katina was one of the older daughters of George and Olympia Hlihlis Tzortzopoulos, Karavas, Kythera.
{For entry, and family history details search under Tzortzopoulos.)

Katina, and husband Andoni would migrate to Australia, soon afterwards, and also establish themselves in Goulburn.

Katina was the older sister of my father, Costandinos Tzortzopoulos, Con Poulos, of Gilgandra, NSW.
