Sue's email to George Christakis dated July 24, 2021: Our grandfather, John Christakos (aka Christie) was born in 1885 in Agios Ioannis. He immigrated with 2 brothers and 1 sister around 1897 and they lived in Brooklyn, NY. Their parents were Spyridon Christakos and Anna Gavakos, both born around 1840 in Agios Ioannis. As far as we know, Sypridon and Anna never lived in America. As I mentioned, Spyridon's father was Christos Christakos b.1810, who we now believe may have been one of the brothers of your ancestor, Georgios Christakis.
