Hello all,

my branch of tzaneteas comes from Mt.Tayegetos from a village called Sohas. Also part of the village is another at the foothills of Mt. Tayegetos. Of course way back the origins are from Mesa Mani. My father's name is Nicholas, grandfather's Dimitri, great grandfather's Nicholas. My great grandfather came to america (chicago) approimately 1920's.
Any similar roots or more info on Tzaneteas in Mani would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, my husband is Dimitrios Tzanetakos from Mani (actually Kastania, Sparti. He still has the family house. The island of Cranae right off of Gythion has the Tzanetaki's Castle on it. Pretty interesting. It was fun to look in the phonebook in Greece & see all the Tzanetakos names! - Mary

Surnames: Tzaneteas
Hi,

I just found this message and quickly phoned my mother about it. My mother is Politimi Tzetzeka (maiden name). Her mother was Maria Tzaneteas (maiden name). Her grandmother was Panagiota Tzaneteas(do not know maiden name) and her grandfather was Tzanetos Tzaneteas. My mother is from Kalivia Sohas.

Interesting note: My mother said that her grandfather did not want his first name to filter down to future generations. Therefore, there are no Tzanetos in the family.
