Individual Details
Peter or Panagiotis Vasileios Liakakos or Lackos
(1852 - 9 Jan 1927)
Name from birth record of daughter, Efrosyni.
Panagiotis was not in my database, so I am adding him to this family because his name was listed as Pan. V. in Efrosyni's reccord.

Liakakos / Stavrakos Surname
NOTE: Regarding Surname
Some people (both male and female) were born with the surname LIAKAKOS in Agios Ioannis, Sparta, Greece. In later records, those same people use the nickname STAVRAKOS as their surname. They seem to switch back and forth between the two names (sometimes in the same document). This is not necessarily consistent within a family unit.
