Occupation: merchant, insurance broker, accountant. 1820: Zizinia, Petrocochino & Agelasto founded. "It began with Smyrna for cotton, Retimno [Crete] and Hydra for oil. In 1821 it received several products from Livourne and cotton from Alexandria, a little before the dissolution of their company, then the formation of Zizinia & Co. and Petrocochino-Agelasto, two houses that played an important role in Marseille commerce, during and especially after the Greek War of Independence" (Echinard). 1850-52: 47/49A allées des Capucines.

File N°6012, Série 9, tome 5 states he arrived in France 1819, was in business as "Petrocochino & Agelasto" and that he first expressed his desire for French citizenship: "…transporté a Marseille, depuis treize ans, son établissement de commerce [connu] sous la raison Petrocochino et Agelasto. En 1822 frappé dans ses affections les plus chères par suite des calamités de sa patrie, le soussigné a depuis longtemps renoncé à y retourner et décide de passer sa vie en France." The petition was initially rejected and Michel was required to renounce allegiance to the King of Greece (provided by Michel Calapodis). French naturalization (see particulars). He is cited in reference to streamlined immigration procedures for the earliest Greek immigrants.

Dictionnaire historique des Rues de Marseille, Edition 2001, in describing Rue Agelasto, 9e arrondissement, Marseille, says Michel Pandia arrived in Marseille in 1819.

Ralli & Agelasto operated in the silk trade in Marseille in 1860-61. See, Gregorii Valerianovich Melgunof, Das südliche Ufer des Kaspischen Meeres oder die Nordprovinzen Persiens (Adamant Media Corporation, 2004), p. 286.

He took in his sister Zenobie around 1829. According to the charity who was taking care of her sons, Michel: “He himself, like his whole family, was also a victim of Turkish atrocity but managed to flee to Marseille, where he is now living in destitute conditions.” "Madame Sagrandy is living since her arrival in Marseille with her brother Michael Ageletto, a good man, father of a number of children, living himself in very difficult conditions."

Family/Spouse: Catherine (Nicolas) Schilizzi. Catherine (daughter of Nicolas (Emmanuel) Schilizzi and Areti [Schilizzi]) was born before 1823. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Testament: Paul's original testament was drawn up at the notary's office in 1845, with 4 witnesses. A small additional chapter, dated 8 Apr 1855, was signed by Paul himself. A concluding chapter, dated 22 Mar 1856, describes an arrangement between Loula Agelasto and her brothers Eustratios and Lukas, confirmed "after their father's death". This means that Paul died sometime between those two dates, most probably shortly before the last one, i.e. Feb/March 1856.
From the method Paul used in distributing his fortune among his children, it seems that Eustratios was his eldest son and already of full age in 1845. Lukas and Stamati must have been still under age at that time as the sums of money willed to them had to be given to their legal guardians and invested in favor of the two children. We don't know how old Loula, Paul's daughter, was in 1845. The fact that Paul willed to her his whole land ownership indicates that she was not married and that this property was meant as a dowry. But if she was still a child, or a teenager, or a young woman, remains unclear.
The will indicates that Paul had still another daughter, obviously older than Loula and perhaps even older than Eustratios, his first son. He willed a small sum of money "to his daughter Maria, married to John Z[orzis?] Mitarakis." [Argenti has a John Mitarakis married to a Maria (Sinadino), a generation or two later, perhaps this John's grandson.] -- George Agelastos (2014)

Notes:

Ralli & Agelasto operated in the silk trade in Marseille in 1860-61. See, Gregorii Valerianovich Melgunof, Das südliche Ufer des Kaspischen Meeres oder die Nordprovinzen Persiens (Adamant Media Corporation, 2004), p. 286.

He is the "Mr Agelasto" referred to in the following anecdote. According to John (Matthew) Ziffo, his father Matthew Alexander Ziffo "was born in the Island of Chios about 2 1/2 years before the Massacre. On that terrible day his Mother with her two daughters, and a young maid, carrying my Father, took to the mountains to cross the island; following a long trail of refugees and guided by shepherds over mule paths. The maid soon got tired, left the child on the mountain side and fled. A Mr Agelasto, the father of John Agelasto whose firm (Frangopulo Agelasto & Co of London and Liverpool) [Theodore (Matthew) Ziffo] joined when he came to London, was following and recognizing the child picked him up and took him to the island of Syra. By a fortunate coincidence his mother and sisters also landed in Syra. One can imagine her joy at being re-united with her boy whom she had feared lost."

He is the distinguished gentleman whose portrait is omnipresent at the top right of these webpages.

Parker Agelasto has found four copies of a photo taken in Marseille that is believed to be Michael Pandely Agelasto, same as the portrait miniature. There are a lot of similarities to the portrait miniature, but the two pictures are separated by about 20 years. Similarly, one is a real photo the other an artist likeness of the sitter.

He was in partnership as merchants, at Marseilles, under the firm of Petrocochino, Agelasto & Co.; at Constantinople, under the firm of E. M. Vuro and Co.; at Galatz [sic], under the firm of D. C. Climi and Co.; at Ibraila and Bucharest, under the firm of Parembli and Climi; and at London, under the firm of Petrocochino and Co., until it was dissolved 31 Dec 1861. The other partners included George Petrocochino, Michael Vuro, M. Parembli, Anthony Vlasto, J. M. Agelasto, A. D. Syngros and A. N. Damiano (London Gazette 28 Mar 1862). An earlier notice appeared 18 Mar 1862 with the typo M. P. Agelasts.).

Michel Agelasto, 55, merchant, allees des Capucines 15, was a signatory witness to the marriage of Michel Parembli and Aspasia Dromacaiti, 4 Jun 1857.

He was a signatory witness to the 1849 marriage of Antoine Nicholas Petrocochino and Euthalie George Petrocochino.

Michael Agelasto signed a letter to the provisory Greek Parliament in 1825 demanding it include a Chiot deputy. This suggests he lived briefly in Syros after fleeing Chios in 1822 and before settling in Marseille.

27 Nov 1834: Michael Agelasto, 32, married, born Chios, merchant, arriving Syros 1824, swore allegiance to the government at the Syros tribunal (before the town hall was built). Stephen Agelasto [possibly his third cousin Stephanos (Augustis) Agelasto], who arrived on Syros also in 1824, took the oath the same day.

M.P. Agelasto was among the 327 Chiot refugees in Syros who signed a letter dated 10 Jul 1829 to the Governor of Greece.

M. P. Agelasto was co-administrator of the will [see source] of a parish priest who set up scholarships for young Marseille Chiots in 1861.

P.P. Negroponte and M. Agelesti, both with the firm Negroponte & Agelastl (sic) were among the more than thirty merchants, "citizens of New Orleans and inhabitants of Louisiana," who signed an open letter written under the seal of the City of New Orleans to Dr. John E. E. Ealino in The Charleston Mercury 19 Jan 1860, p 2, praising the physician's skills as his former patients and welcoming him as a winter resident of New Orleans. This man's son, Alexander M., settled in New Orleans after an 1860 visit on which, perhaps, he was accompanied by his father.

"Brig Walter Scott, Leighton, Matamoras 30 ds., with cotton to Negreponte & Agelasto. Oct. 18 [1863], off Tortugas, was boarded by U.S. gunboat Clyde" (New York Times 6 Nov 1863, p 8.

Michel Agelasto is referenced as one of the 1822 massacre refugees who arrived in Marseille (Echinard); This Michel fled to Syros and didn't arrive in Marseille until at least after 1835.

Notes:

Argenti identifies a John Emmanuel Agelasto (1848-1905) on the Petrocochino tree (http://www.agelastos.com/genealogy/admin/index.php) who is not placed on the main Agelasto tree. His father was Emmanuel John (1822, Turkey), apparently the same date and place of birth as Emmanuel Michael.

Unknown to Argenti. The information here comes from a 1929 letter from Smaragda Fotiadis (née Agelasto) to her nephew Nicolaos Agelasto, b 1910-d 1945) (2007, Constantin Agelasto collection, deciphered and translated by George Agelasto). http://www.agelastos.com/genealogy/documents/SMARAGDA_1929_letter.html

Smaragda Fotiadis says he had five sons, all dead by 1929. He operated a Manchester trading company, [presumably 1860s] "Rodocanachi & Agelasto" with the husband of his sister. It ended in failure, she says. Indeed, Constantine Theodore (Theodore) Rodocanachi was a Liverpool merchant in 1869. He was married to Arghyro 'Argentine' (Ambrose) Sechiari; no documentary evidence of an Agelasto married to a Rodocanachi in that place and time or a company by that name.

Notes:

Michael Agelasto, my great-uncle, for whom I was named, worked in cotton brokerage, which he thoroughly detested, according to my mother. Known as Mickey, he was educated as both an engineer and medical doctor, but he practiced neither of these professions. The middle of the three brothers, it was he who never married and had the responsibility to take care of his mother who did not die until Mickey was himself 65 years old. Mickey was fluent in several languages, including classical Greek, and he managed to flee to Europe for summer vacations, leaving his mother, I suspect, to his siblings' management.

According to Peter A. Agelasto III, his grandfather, Peter A Agelasto, had to work hard to pay the debts that his younger brother Alexander ran up in trying to run the cotton business after their father (Alexander Michael) died.

The following 2008 note is from George Scrini, the great-grandson of Virginia Mavrogordato Scrini, who was Alexander's aunt and god-mother[perhaps secretive as it is unclear whether Alexander's parents knew that she had had their son baptized].

"Earlier in the year, we were in Chios and did an interview for the local paper about my connections with Chios. They did their own research and came up with a mention of Virginia and Alexander in a book by the authoress Penelope Delta. Her maiden name was Benaki (Benaki Museum in Athens) and her family had met the Scrinis while on holiday in Llandudno in North Wales. Alexander was about 13 at the time. He was 'a spoilt little boy who refused to speak any Greek!'"


He donated objects to the Smithsonian Natural History Museum, Washington, DC, with correspondence dating 11 May 1937 and 10 Aug 1943. The several items were lent to the Smithsonian in 1937 and later given as a gift in 1938. Their records show that the items were acquired in India by his father, A.M. Sr., on a trip in 1875.

A. M. Agelasto, Jr. was a member of the New York Cotton Exchange in 1907. He is on a list of 34 cotton traders on the Exchange who lived in the U.S. South. The newspaper article concerns a congressional investigation over the Exchange's 'gambling methods.' ("The Cotton Exchange Side of It," Atlanta Constitution, 1 Mar 1907, p 6)

He was one of the three Department of Agriculture agents conducting a public investigation of cotton exchanges in Southern cities, including Norfolk, Va., 26 Aug 1918 ("Probing the Disparity in Prices of Cotton," The Atlanta Constitution, 27 Aug 1918).

Name:
Recorded as Alexandre Alexandre Agelasto on his birth certificate and Alexander Michael on his gravestone. While his father A.M. Agelasto lived, he referred to himself as A.M. Agelasto Jr. He apparently also anglicized his spelling from Alexandre to Alexander and from Michel to Michael. The 1900 census calls him Alex M. Jr.

Birth:
14 Nov 1873, according to death certificate.

Christened:
He was baptised by Archimandrite Constantine Stratoulis. The church register exceptionally does not include the father's given name, although it gives his occupation as merchant and the address as Southport [Merseyside, Lancashire]. It states that the 4-year-old child came from America. The God-parent is Ms. Scrini [Virginia Scrini, his maternal aunt]. [Speculation: In Orthodox tradition a son can have the same given name as his father, only if the father is deceased by the time of the son's baptism, which was clearly not the case in this situation. Thus, the father's name is omitted.]
