"Family histories of Palaio Irakleio: Bavarian colonists and descendants" by John Wagner (1/3/2022)

2nd International Greek Ancestry Conference (Jan. 29-30, 2022) - Session IV: Village History Projects Initiative The presentation reveals the history of Paleo Iraklio (Παλαιό Ηράκλειο Αττικής), a settlement of Bavarian families founded by Royal decree by King Otho I of Greece. This project, part of Greek Ancestry’s VHPI, attempts to trace the origins of these original colonists, and their descendants, via the construction of a unified family tree. The discussion will also focus on the resource tools used by the author while attempting to uncover his family history and ancestors who trace their origins to this village. Bavarian descendant John Wagner was born and raised in Montreal, Canada, the chosen homeland of his immigrant parents who both arrived separately from Greece during the 1950’s. His father, grandfather, and 7 aunts and uncles were all born in Paleo Iraklio and all immigrated to Canada during the same period. He continues to pursue genealogy projects that help him understand his Greek and Bavarian roots and hopes to help others understand this aspect of Greek history.
