Η ιστοσελίδα σας είναι πολύ καλή και προβάλλει το νησί μας με τον καλύτερο τρόπο. Αν υπήρχαν όμως και κάποιες φωτογραφίες, θα έπειθαν και τον πιο δυστακτικό να τα επισκεφτεί!

My great-grandmother was Panayiota Tsirigoti (born approx. 1850). Her family was originally from Kythera but when she married my great-grandfather (Yiannis Bolovitsiotis) she was living in Lakonia. I would like to visit Kythera one day to do some research.

Just wondering if there are any Cominos on this island. My grandfather was named Arthur Cominos, and was from Kythera (I just found this out). He left Kythera in the 1920s, and married my grandmother, a Bavarian named Elsie. They were later divorced and he apparently (I only got pieces of this growing up) returned to his island, presumably Kythera, and then later returned to Northern CA, Salinas area, where family owned the Hotel Cominos. I knew very little of the history due to very nasty divorce between Arthur and Elsie. After the divorce he returned to Greece for a while. I believe he later lived in Northern California after he remarried a Greek woman from Kythera and returned to his family near Salinas. If you know anything, I would like to know more. The story I heard is that another part of the same family from Kythera also emigated, but to Australia. I know nothing of the Australian family and very little of my American Greek roots. My mother's maiden name was Elizabeth Cominos. They lived together in Alhambra, California, in the 1930s.
Any help would be appreciated, as I would like to know more.

Part of the great kytherian diaspora, I've been back twice in my life, and was fortunate to meet my grandfather Evangeli Megaloconomos (Caponas) before he died. A great sense of connection to place; a beautiful place.

Dear all, it is true what they say: if you go to Kythera once, then you go again and again... What a wonderful island it is!!! I went to Kythera last year and enjoyed it very much. I stayed at Camping at Kapsali and would like to go again next Friday.

My Yiayia and Papou were born on Kythera...(Cavacos and Coroneos). I have visited many times and loved the island. We have a large Kytherian community here... found a Kytherian dictionary in our church library! Happy to hear from other Tsirigotis at any time!

My first visit in Kythera was 1982. We were sailing a boot to Quwait and had some problems with our mast. We went to Kapsali for a day. One of my wishes were to come back to the island once again. I and my wife made it last year 2003.
