She is connected to the bloodline through her daughters, not through her parents - Nicolas G. and Harriet Paspati - who are also on the bloodline.

Known to her family as Aunt Pico. When very young she fell in love with a married man but dutifully married Aristide instead (Christopher Long).

She met her former lover again but he would not marry her fearing for her social ostracism. Dominie Vlasto says she was a very strong presence in the family although her husband was scarcely ever mentioned. She also had a weak chest and gambled! (Christopher Long).

According to Marietta Pallis, a photograph of a drawing-room (now much damaged) is ?probably? that of her Aunt Pico at Linden House, Aigburth Drive, Liverpool. The picture was taken by Dimitri Dragoumis (Christopher Long).

According to Dominie Vlasto she had four daughters. She appears holding Philip Ralli in a Jan 1905 photo showing Eustratius Ralli in a 35 hp Panhard-Levassor car and its chauffeur Bowton (Christopher Long).
