Re: phillip panagopoulos; or philip goplus
Hello. I am searching for PANAGOPOULOS family members that lived in Chicago's West Town area (Halsted & Maxwell Streets) once they arrived in 1907-1908. People I am specifically looking for are: LOUIS POULOS (guessing he already shortened the name) and Thomas G. Panagopoulus.
I am attaching two photos and hoping you can help me. LOUIS POULOS is in the casket. On one of the funerary wreaths are two names. One appears to be THOMAS G. PANAGOPOULOS. Do you see a different name? Not sure if this is a brother or father.
Whatever you can provide for insight is greatly appreciated.
Regards, Tom Kukuk

Re: phillip panagopoulos; or philip goplus
hmm. interesting. my great grandfather philip panagopulos, goplus, panagopulous, panagopoulos--many spellings- did live around that area i believe. he also came around 1907 from greece. i know he had a brother charles and one named gus panagopulos. i haven't been able to find much else. phillip changed his name to goplus but also sometimes used panos. no wonder we can't find much information with all the aliases.
i have relatives coming in for a wedding next weekend so that is why i have been doing more searching. i was planning on picking their brains. i will run this by them and see if they have any information.

Re: phillip panagopoulos; or philip goplus
Thank you very much. Hopefully those pictures help. If you know of a Chicago based Greek genealogical board, I might have some luck there. Elmwood Cemetery in Chicago has a GREEK section and is loaded with "POLOUS" which means "son of" from what I have learned. Panagopolous came from the funerary ribbon on the casket. Thank you again.
