 Welcome! 

This site is for keeping track of my ancestors originating in Lakonia Greece and their hundreds, perhaps thousands, of descendants.  
 

I am focusing on the family of my Great, Great, Great Grandfather Nikos Tsingos Νικόλαος Τσίγκος (aka Tsigos, Tsiggos, Tsigkos) from Kremasti born in the early 1800s.  He had 3 boys (Panagiotis, Constantinos & Eleuftherius) and 4 girls. Sophia married into the Andromidas family. Pagona into the Legakis family.  Stamatina married into the Haramis family. Tasso died as a young child.

I am also interested in the Kombogiorgas Κομπόγιωργας (aka Kompogiorgas) and Lecakes (aka Lekakis) families from Harakas/Gerakas and Angelona respectively. 

    

There are still many gaps in my family trees that I need help with. If you have information to share, I'd like to hear from you. I am interested in names, dates and places of birth/death, photographs and stories.

I also have a blog at:  http://jpeterchingos.blogspot.com/
