Hi I posted about this before unfortunately couldn't get enough reply. I am posting this now with a bit more information I gathered.
I am lookig a man called " Andreas papanicolaou or Papanikolaou ". He came to London between 1957 to 1959 to learn Tailoring and he attende in the evening class. He must be in his early 80s.
I live in Uk and looking eagerly to hear back from you.
Thank you.
Additional information:
I believe he was born 1937 or 1938. His family had a Tailoring business up in the mountains.

I can only think the reason no one has replied to your post ( and probably the previous one ) is that you are relying predominately on the gentleman that you are seeking

a) being from the Paphos area and
b) one of the members here knowing him socially or professionally

He may have originated from Paphos but maybe he is living somewhere else on the Island. There was a lot of upheaval in 1974 and the dates you mention are 15 years before that

Add to this most of the posters on this site are ex-Pats and obviously no-one has come across him


I would have thought you would have been better asking around on Facebook as you would gain the benefit of people reading it all across Cyprus ( and the world ) not only knowing him socially or professionally but also you gain access to local Cypriots who he may be related to him or come from the same village, worked together etc

I did forget to add a link to a site that you can post the details to, but would think Facebook would be better but its free and worth a try

Thank you. I will try lost friends.com.
I been adviced to join cypricot groups in facebook and I did. Couple of people replied but none bring me any good information. As I am living in UK I can only travel once I am sure that is the right man.
Yes it was his last location many years ago. He might move somewhere.
Thank you.

There's a facebook group called Frozen Cypriots - someone on there may come up with something, if you haven't already joined that one.
Good luck with your search!
