To see what is available for your county, go to [http://www.gak.gr/index.php/el/tilefona-diefthynseis '''Links and addresses for county archives''']. After you choose a county, you will see "File Notary" clearly marked. For each file you select, clicking the "Contents" tab will give you sub-listings. Continue to work down through the sub-listings until you find a file of interest. When the "digital copies" tab changes from gray to black, you will be able to see the actual records. | ||
