Greek Festival & Exhibition

Family keepsakes and brief histories are arriving from Port’s Greek families to be copied into the album we’re putting together for our August exhibition.

Younger generations seem the most keen to have their family included in the archives, and respond well to personal contact. Although the June deadline looms, please continue to invite Greek friends to join in.

To assist them, download these Greek/English PDFs, or pick up hard copy from the Port Assist Desk or George at Elegant Slax.

Greek Family History Flyer – Greek/English (PDF 195KB)
Greek Family History Topics – Greek/English (PDF 1.8MB)

As an absolute minimum, only four questions need to be answered, but photos, documents and memorabilia (with full identification) are especially desirable. All will be returned as soon as copied and/or photographed.

  • When did the first of the family arrive in Port?
  • On what ship did they come?
  • From what region did they come?
  • Who were those first arrivals (their names and place in the family)?

Having any written material in digital form (i.e. emailed) is not required, but is especially helpful.

Note the date for submission of material has been extended until 30 June.
