Based on the accounting records of St John Church, Georgiadis makes an alphabetical list of Chiot enterprises [of Constantinople] that sponsored the Church in the time from 1843 to 1880. There is no mention of year/date. Included among Agelastos enterprises is: Augustís C. Agelastos.

Augustus married Loula (Paul) Agelasto about 1872 in Alexandria, Egypt . [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

After her parents’ death most of the estate was willed to Loula, who had no issue. Husband’s daughters from a subsequent marriage died in infancy so that "the parental property passed through to other side relatives," George P. Georgiadis, The St. Ioannis Church of the Chiots in Galata, (Constantinople, 1898), as cited by George Zolotas, History of Chios (Athens, 1928), p 264.

Notes:

Married:
Marriage date from International Genealogical Index, 11/3/2001 as "Avgoustis Agelasto" in "Al Iskandoriyah, Egypt." George P. Georgiadis, The St. Ioannis Church of the Chiots in Galata, (Constantinople, 1898), as cited by George Zolotas, History of Chios (Athens, 1928), p 263, gives birthdate. Ibid, p. 264, says an Augustus Agelasto married Loula Agelasto, "to whom she was not related, as he belonged to the branch living at Saint Tryphon (Thymiana), an old Agelasto domicile."

Notes:

Presumably he was born on and resided until 1822 at the St. Tryphon property, Kampos, Chios.

Philanthropy: Constantine Agelasto donated 10 TL in favour of the 1881 earthquake victims on Chios according to unpublished research by Demetrios Melachrinoudis

Angherou Constantine Agelasto, d. 8 Feb 1896, 31 Aga-Hamam St, Pera, Constantinople, probate 14 Jul 1896, to Angelica Andrea Sordina £1168 6s 7d

DOD 8 Feb 1896 according to UK probate.

Notes:

Testament: Paul's original testament was drawn up at the notary's office in 1845, with 4 witnesses. A small additional chapter, dated 8 Apr 1855, was signed by Paul himself. A concluding chapter, dated 22 Mar 1856, describes an arrangement between Loula Agelasto and her brothers Eustratios and Lukas, confirmed "after their father's death". This means that Paul died sometime between those two dates, most probably shortly before the last one, i.e. Feb/March 1856.
From the method Paul used in distributing his fortune among his children, it seems that Eustratios was his eldest son and already of full age in 1845. Lukas and Stamati must have been still under age at that time as the sums of money willed to them had to be given to their legal guardians and invested in favor of the two children. We don't know how old Loula, Paul's daughter, was in 1845. The fact that Paul willed to her his whole land ownership indicates that she was not married and that this property was meant as a dowry. But if she was still a child, or a teenager, or a young woman, remains unclear.
The will indicates that Paul had still another daughter, obviously older than Loula and perhaps even older than Eustratios, his first son. He willed a small sum of money "to his daughter Maria, married to John Z[orzis?] Mitarakis." [Argenti has a John Mitarakis married to a Maria (Sinadino), a generation or two later, perhaps this John's grandson.] -- George Agelastos (2014)
