Here is another one from Wellington Point. Wellington Point, Brisbane, Kytherian campsites Found these photos in some old boxes. Not sure who the people are but these were taken at the 'campsites' at Wellington Point. Not sure if this is pre or post war, but certainly looks like an enjoyable place to be. Can anyone put names to faces?

My great-grandparents Vasileios Koulentianos and Zaharoula Tsampiras Koulentianos. Vasileios was brother to the priest Dionysios Koulentianos, and was the village apothecarist.
This photo is addressed to my grandfather Diamantis Chlentzos. On the back it is described as his brother and wife in Sydney , and the photo was taken at The Eden Studios on George St. in Sydney. As far as I know, this is not my grandfather's brother, but is most likely a Chlentzos relative. Please help to identify this dapper couple.
Yanoula Chlentzos is shown back row, left. Third in back row is her son Harry Chlentzos, and in front of him is his paternal aunt Kyrani Chlentzos Katsoulis. This photo was taken in Kythira in 1955. Who are some of the other folks in this photo?
