We have a name
With further talking to cousins, we finally have a name which the youngest daughter of Constantinus John had written on a piece of paper found in her belongings when the house was cleared.
IT IS ROSSOLIMO.
We explored this more than a decade ago and found no proof but this takes us a step closer even if, without knowing where Sylvia got the name, or why she wrote it down. But write it down she did and it is a bit out of the norm for Greek names, most of which Australians would assume ended with TOPOLOUS.
So, now to find a Greek researcher to see if we can find a Constantinus married to a Georgina or Anastasia, given Greek naming traditions gives the name of the paternal grandfather to the first-born son and the name of the paternal grandmother to the first born daughter.
Work on the book continues and I will update the ROSSOLIMO research as we gather more information.
