Notes:

According to son George: "My father had a very conflicted relationship with the USA. My mother and father came to New York at the "request" of my Coumantaros grandfather Nicholas. The story goes that he wanted one of his children out of Europe as the war broke out. My father worked for Stavros Niarchos at first. In the early 1940s. Then for Didi Stathatos. Then eventually for himself both here and in London. He always did fairly well in his business but it wasn't easy. We were all sent to the very established schools (Choate, Exeter, Yale and MIT). Our "Americanization" was really accomplished more by these schools than our parents."
