Hi Jim,
Thank you for replying - however i do not know much about the Kaounas line, other than what i have already written and would appreciate any help - I think my grandfather Pantelis Konstantinos Kaounas was orphaned young and brought up in Cyprus -(he died in 1984 not 1994 as I first wrote) and had spent 28 years in the USA. my father was Kaounas and we would love to know where the name originated from. Where does your line come from?
