Looking for an Old Friend

Postby scottish girl » Mon Jul 17, 2006 12:39 pm

I am searching for someone I met while my father was in the British Army in Cyprus in approx. 1963. His name was Andrikou Modis, He lived in Famagusta on Salamis Rd. In Orange Groves his family owned. He had all brothers,one was Dasos. I realise he will be living else where, after the division of Cyprus. Would appreciate any info or perhaps suggestions in my search.

Thanks.....

Scottish girl. I am sorry but the name sounds like maybe it was typed wrong or spelled wrong. Are you sure that is it?

I realise he also went by Andreas and the d in Modis could be a t as in Motis, I did try the yellow pages. No luck there either.


Thankyou for responding.....

Possible that could be his brother Tasos! I did try to access the white pages alphabetical listings but could not bring it down page by page to search for Motis.

Try this link. All you have to do is pick a district and type the last name in. Good luck

I did find the one you probably found in Larnaka, it may just be his brother who knows. After the division in Cyprus have no idea where most Greek Cypriots relocated to. However this is a start, now have to muster the courage to make some kind of contact either by mail or phone.
I see you are in usa likewise live in Florida, thanks for all the patience and help greatly appreciated...
