NOTE: When we asked at the cemetery office for this tombstone location, we were given information for Panagiotis Morfogenis buried with Elisabeth P and we have a photo of their tombstone. I don't know if these 2 Panagiotis' are the same person, and Panagiotis married a second time??? So I am keeping them separate for now, as we have not found 2 tombstones for Panagiotis.
