So I was at the pub today talking to a new friend - David Arthurs. His grandfather was immigrant from Greece who came to America and changed his name from Kritsalos to Arthurs. David was looking up his grandfather's town and island (Glossa Skopelos) on YouTube. To his surprise, he found a video that was being narrated by a man named Kostas (nickname for Konstantinos) Kritsalos. David emailed Kostas and they began a dialogue, which soon moved to MSN. On Sunday, May 4th, they figured out that their grandfathers were cousins making them third cousins.
Here is a picture of Kostas (the cousin in Greece) and his prized motorcycle.
