18657 WWII: anti tank platoon commander on D Day. According to William Leece, Daily Post (Liverpool, England), 5 Jun 2009, "Stories from the Longest Day": In the Support Company of 5th Kings Regiment, temporary Captain Bobby Fachiri was surprisingly calm. "It wasn't as terrifying as I thought it would be," the 89-year old former Bank of England official and later professional artist recalls at his home in south Wirral. "As we landed it was pretty chaotic, not as chaotic as I thought it might have been as people had been well organised." Bobby Fachiri's task was to man a six-pounder gun, to try and hold off the Panzer division that was trying in vain to halt the relentless advance. "Bloody good soldiers they were, very brave and well-trained," he remembers of the enemy. He was to win the Military Cross for his part in D-Day and later. The citation in the London Gazette reads: "Landing in Normandy on the morning of 6th June 1944 with six anti-tank guns, positions were taken forward of Hermanville-sur-Mer. By his skill and determination, these guns remained in position for six days in spite of penetration of enemy patrols to the rear and constant sniping."

"Kingsmen who fought Nazis in secret war; T Force survivors meet," in the same paper by Tony Barrett, 13 Nov 2003: "One of T Force's most spectacular successes was the capture of a German seaplane base in Travemunde. The operation was led by reconnaissance platoon commander Major Bobby Fachiri, originally from Sefton Park who was awarded the Military Cross for his actions. Now 86 and living in Heswall, Major Fachiri still has fond memories of T Force and the men he served with. He said: 'Although it was a long time ago and my memory isn't as good as it was since I had a stroke a short time ago, I can still remember a lot about what happened back then. One of the best things about the time was the camaraderie that existed between the lads.' Although reluctant to talk about his own role in combat, the citation for the award of Major Fachiri's Military Cross provides a fitting testimony to his valour at Travemunde and almost a year earlier on D-Day. It reads in part:

'Landing in Normandy on the morning of June 6, 1944 with six anti-tank guns,positions were taken up forward of Hermanville sur Mer; by his skill and determination these guns remained in position for six days, in spite of the penetration of enemy patrols to the rear,and constant sniping. On May 2,1945 as reconnaissance platoon commander, he was ordered to take nine reconnaissance cars to Travemunde to prevent destruction of the seaplane base. Arriving on his objective the German Air Force was found to be in possession, but the whole staff and personnel were forced to surrender. This officer by his personal disregard for his own safety and with great confidence successfully completed these operations on May 5 when further troops arrived in the area.'"

18685 Zoe Rodocanachi relates this anecdote from her grandmother, Eirene: At the time of the Crusades, the families of Rodocanachi and Petrocochino were in Byzantine. When the Turks captured the city, they escaped to the island of Chios, in A.D.1362, where they lived until A.D.1822, when the Turks sacked the island. Some members escaped to Trieste, from where they spread to various parts of Europe. One of the Rodocanachis (whose portrait keeps on our staircase) was carried as a baby away from Chios by his elder sister, who lost a shoe on the beach as she escaped!
 
Petrocochino, Eirene Despina (Stephen) (I1980)
 
18686 Zolotas mentions a Michael Agelasto (1826 in Constantinople) and his son Emmanuel A. (s. Georgiadis). Emmanuel´s wife was Ypatia, who died 1870 (s. Georgiadis).
 
Agelasto, Michael (Stamati) (I32)
 
18687 Zolotas mentions a Michael Agelasto (1826 in Constantinople) and his son Emmanuel A. (s. Georgiadis). Emmanuel´s wife was Ypatia, who died 1870 (s. Georgiadis).
 
[Agelasto], Ypatia (I574)
 
18688 Zolotas mentions a Michael Agelasto (1826 in Constantinople) and his son Emmanuel A. (s. Georgiadis). Emmanuel´s wife was Ypatia, who died 1870, citing Georgiadis.
 
Agelasto, Emmanuel (Michael) (I455)
 
18689 Zolotas mentions Constantinos Agelasto, (1802 – 1882 Constantinople, citing Georgiadis 1840). His wife was Angerou (1812 – 1896) and his son was Augustís (C.) Agelasto (citing Georgiadis 1852). Georgiadis, the source for Zolotas, gives the above dates for Constantinos and his wife, though the son is not mentioned in the 1898 edition, which is perhaps why he is omitted by Argenti, who may have relied on this edition. Additionally, Georgiadis refers to the accounting records of St John Church of the Chiots and mentions the sum of 30 [Turkish] pounds, received on 27 Jan 1896, willed to the Church by
Angeroù Agelastos, widow of Constantinos Agelastos. (George Agelastos) 
Agelasto, Constantine (Augustis) (I28)
 
18690 Zolotas says a Katerni [Agelasto] of the Schilizzi family was among two old women who lived in Chios until the end of the 19th Century. Schilizzi, Catherine (Nicolas) (I35)
 
18691 Zolotas says he and his wife are buried at Panaghiá in Cocorovilia, Chios. Agelasto, Paul (Stamati) (I519)
 
18692 Zolotas says she and her husband are buried at Panaghiá in Cocorovilia, Chios. Mavrogordato, Batoliá (I520)
 
18693 Zolotas says that references to Dimitri Pandelis Agelasto are found in three sources: the Lazaretto Codex of Chios in 1787, archives of Chadzi Lorenzis Schilizzi in 1816, and in Smyrni in 1816. Argenti created two Dimitri (#7, Dimitri Zannis ) and (#10, Dimitri Pandelis), but this was apparently a mistaken reading of Zolotas who referred to Dimitri only as the son of Pandelis, not Zannis. (George Agelasto) Agelasto, Dimitri (Pandelis) (I10)
 
18694 Zolotas: Constantinos Agelasto, (1802 – 1882, died in Constantinople, citing Georgiadis, the same is mentioned ibid. in 1840). His wife was Angerou (1812 – 1896) and his son was Augustís (C.) Agelasto, citing Georgiadis 1852. Agelasto, Augustus (Constantine) (I545)
 
18695 Zolotas: Leonís Agelasto, in Constantinople (s. Georgiadis: 1814 and 1819).  Agelasto, Leoni (Stamati) (I36)
 
18696 Zorzis (Stephanos) Galati had six children, but only two are involved in the Negroponte-Agelasto bloodline. The others are included in Argenti/Long. Galati, Zorzis (Stephanos) (I273)
 
18697 Zorzis Pandely Negroponte, banker, is mentioned in the notary records, Syros, 4 Oct 1851. Negroponte, Zorzis (Pandely) (I42)
 
18698 Zorzis Sechiari, 50, b. Chios, married, having arrived Syros 1834, merchant, swore allegiance to the Greek state at the Greek consulate, Marseille, on 25 Feb 1853. Sechiari, Georges (Paraskeva) (I330)
 
18699 [10 Sep 1874]: Leonidas A. Agelasto, 27, born Chios, unmarried, merchant, swore allegiance to the Greek government at the town hall, Ermoupolis. No arrival date on Syros is given, suggesting that he was born on the island and that Chios is his family's origin, not his place of birth. The previous entry on the list, sharing the same ID number, is for Stephan A. Agelasto, presumably his younger brother. The archive's digital index omits the date; on the original register it is likely the clerk used ditto marks.
 
Agelasto, Leonidas (Ambrosios) (I165)
 
18700 [apparently not:] Michael K. Caralli, 32, b. Chios, married, having arrived Syros 1831, insurance agent, swore allegiance to the Greek state on 9 Oct 1840 at the town hall, Ermoupolis, Syros. Caralli, Michael (I3434)
