According to the spring newsletter from the Hellenic Society of Maine, “Mary Papoutsy will discuss the American sources of information needed to launch genealogical research in Greece, and then give concrete examples of the types of information that Greek repositories hold.” Mrs. Papoutsy is currently a doctoral researcher at Aristotle University in Thessaloniki in Greece.
