Nicolas Stathis
Hello I am his granddaughter and I have been looking for details of his life and family on Kythera. He left and migrated to Sydney Australia in 1923. In his application for Naturalisation, he stated that his father was named John Stathis and that all family came from Kythera. He also stated that he served the military for 5 years before leaving. So where would I be able to find his birth/baptism record, military record and record of his departure?
Anyone here related to him at all?
He died in Queanbeyan, leaving behind a family of 8 (7 kids), ran a milk bar at the top of Crawford St, Queanbeyan from 1935 to 1952. He was involved with having the Orthodox church setting up in Canberra.
Just wondered if anyone would know a bit about him, travelled with him on Hobson Bay in 1923, etc.
Thanks!
