I need help piecing together my grandfather’s journey from Turkiye to Greece in the 1920s. The priority is immigration records held in Mainland Greece— passenger lists, arrival manifests, residence permits, or any other official paperwork that can confirm whether he travelled with siblings.
What I already know: only the name he used upon arrival. I have no verified date or port, so your local knowledge of archives, municipal registries, church files, or port authority collections will be essential.
Deliverables
• Digital copies (or clear photos/scans) of every record you locate, with archive references and English summaries.
• A brief research log explaining sources checked—even if nothing turns up—so I can see the search path taken.
• A concluding note on any evidence of accompanying siblings, or a statement that none was found in the examined materials.
If you’re familiar with Greek General State Archives (GAK), local prefecture records, or port archives such as Piraeus, please tell me how quickly you can begin.
