Notes:

Residence: 1874-76, Marseille, France. According to the 1876 Marseille census, she was a widow and living with her son, surviving daughter Marie and a domestic servant at rue Thomas 20. The census gives her name as "Alexandrie Dara Angelhasto." She is listed as Alexandre Agelasto in the 1874 Marseille directory without the 'Vve' that indicates widow status. On her daughter Victoria's death certificate, she is Alexandra Gara, widow.

Notes:

Married:
This family is not included in Argenti's Agelasto tree; rather John Emmanuel is on Argenti's Petrocochino tree as a spouse (and thus on our Negroponte-Agelasto tree).

Notes:

Presumably he was born on and resided until 1822 at the St. Tryphon property, Kampos, Chios.

Birth:
Argenti places him first in birth order, which is incorrect. He was second son.

Estimated birth year based on fact it should be after Tryphon and before any others that are known (ie, Stephanos in 1779).
