Vasileios Michail Aridas
(1905 - 1929)
In May 2009, I received a Mitroon Arrenon, Dimos Lakonias, from the General State Archives of Greece, Archives of Lakonia:
Aridas, Vasileios; Father - Mihail, born 1905 in Agios Ioannis; no death under Notes.
Assumption that Vasileios and Christos are brothers - 5 years apart and have same father's name.
Received from General Archives of Greece, Laconia (Sparta Office) - May 2009. Town Register (Dimotologion Koinothtos)
Family Number 6:
Aridas Mihail M (father) Christos (mother) Gkolfo; born: 1867, Agios Ioannis; death recorded March 24, 1959
“ Eleni F Dimitrios Leakakos, born: 1866 Agios Ioannis; death recorded March 11, 1959
“ Christos M born 1900; lived in Russia; death recorded Sept 11 1955
“ Eleni F father: Vasileos Karteroulis born 1877 Agios Ioannis
“ Vasilios M born: 1905 Agios Ioannis; lived in Ag. Ioannis; death recorded Sept 11 1955
“ Panagiotis M born: 1910 Agios Ioannis
Michalakakos Konstantinos* M born: 1912 Agios Ioannis, lived in Athens, death December 12, 1968
Aridas Anastasia F born: 1918 Agios Ioannis married Dec 27 1959
*Note: Received a copy of Family Register from Mystras, from George Revelos in October 2009. That family register had Konstantinos listed. George said the following: "As for Kosta Mihalakakos, that is Kosta Aridas. My uncle wrote my mother back in the late 940's that he had uncovered the real name for Aridas as Mihalakakos. He said that one of the ancestors had long legs which is what Aridas translates to from arida (leg). It was a nickname that stuck. So, there for a while we were saying that mom was a Mihalakakos. It didn't take long for tht to disappear. I think my uncle Kosta had that put in. Maybe the note after his name references that. I can't make out what it says."

*Konstandinos Michalakakos -- 2 different theories as to why he has a different name: (1) George Revelos said his mother, Effrosyni Aridas, learned when she was in Greece in the 1950's that the original family name was Michalakakos, but an ancestor had long legs and he got the nickname "Arida" (long leg or big foot); (2) George Aridas said the original family name was Aridas, but Kostandinos was a minister in Athens and he didn't like the name Aridas so he took his father's name, Michail, and called himself Michalakakos
