Notes:

According to her daughter, Vera said her great grandfather "was a Greek merchant. He used to visit his daughter but went away with his son [presumed a half-brother but only because the story came down as his son not as her brother] on a journey one day (perhaps to North or South America) and never came back. My Mum wasn't sure of his name - said it was Augustus Angelesco - or something like that."
