Foundation of the Hellenic World - Genealogy Project

The Genealogy Project aims at reconstructing the family trees of the Asia Minor refugees, Greek-Orthodox inhabitants of Asia Minor and Pontos (the Black Sea region) who were expelled from their homeland after the Asia Minor disaster in 1922, and took refuge in Greece. The family data to be collected will begin with the grandparents of each Asia Minor refugee, and follow into their posterity.
