Our dear brothers
Antonio Mastrogeorge (Antonios Demitrious Mastrogeorgiou), known in NZ as Anotnio George
Stelios Mastrogeorge (Stelios Mastrogeorgiou) known in NZ as Stanley George
Antonio and Stelios were born in Plomari, Mytilini, Greece and were 2 out of 7 siblings who came to New Zealand. Antonio and another brother Georgios (George) were listed as operating a restaurant as the George Brothers called the Empire Street Cafe in Willis Street.
Stelios was listed as a waiter on his death record so he could have possibly been involved in the family business as well.
Antonio passed away in the 1918 Influenza Pandemic, signing his will two days before he passed away to allow his brother Georgios to be his executor.
Remembered by their remaining siblings in New Zealand Marigo, Permathia, Emmanuel, Georgios, Zaharo
It’s been a little difficult finding further information on the brothers, due to the various name changes, and the anglicising of their names.
If anyone has further information on this family we would love to know.
