Mavrogordato [probably Ambrouzis (Pandely) Mavrogordato]; M. E. Rodocanachi [probably Michel Emmanuel Rodocanachi]; P. E. Rodocanachi [probably Paul (Emmanuel) Rodocanachi or Pandely (Emmanuel) Rodocanachi]; G. M. Mavrogordato, Pandely Rodocanachi [likely Pandely (Emmanuel) Rodocanachi] (London Gazette 23 Dec 1853). Occupation: 1853, merchant, Leghorn, Italy, referred to as "Emanuelle Rodocanachi, formerly Pandeli, or the son of the late Pandeli" (London Gazette 23 Dec 1853). Emanuel Rodocanachi was partners with John Thomas Goodban, Insurance and Exchange Brokers, 7 Great Winchester Street, formerly of 3 Union Court, London, until dissolved 1 Aug 1849 (London Gazette 3 Aug 1849). Emmanuel Rodocanachi was among the twenty-one founding members of the Greek church, Marseille, in 1836, a group which also included Paraschewa Sechiari, Andre Argenti, George D. Zizinia, Michel Dromocaiti, Michel Petrocochino [probably Michel Dimitrios Petrocochino, rather than Michel Andre Petrocochino;, George M. Zizinia, Michel Agelasto, Jean Baltazzi, George Petrocochino and George Grimanelli (Echinard). In 1834 Emmanouil Rodokanakis through Rodocanachi Sons & Co. financially supported the building of the Greek Orthodox church on the rue de la grande-Armée, Marseille. [2] Four children of Pandely Rodocanachi & Yangou Pandia Calvocoressi are on the Agelasto or Negroponte tree: Marigo, Emmanuel, Smaragda and Viera. Noble (26 Jun 1846) and Privy Counsellor to Grand Duke Leopold ll, Tuscany. Emmanuel escaped from the Turkish massacre on Chios in 1822. In 1817 he married 15 year-old Oriettou Vlasto. They fled by sea to Trieste where she died of exhaustion aged 20. After the death of Oriettou he moved to Livorno to work with his brother Paul. Presumably he is the Emmanuel Rodocanachi whose memorial is said to be situated in the Arcade of Montenero Monastery in Livorno (Christopher Long). He was a pivotal figure in the Marseille Greek community, having arrived in 1822, naturalized in 1832…in 1847 he asked the permission of the Confranternité de Livourne to marry his son Pandely to Katina Lucas Rodocanachi, 6th cousins. [3] Emmanuel P. Rodocanachi, probably not his namesake, Emmanuel (Paul) Rodocanachi, was one of three men primarily responsible for the building of the orthodox Greek church (along with Georges (Menander) Zizinia ; and Michel D. Petrocochino [more likely Michael (Dimitrios) Petrocochino rather than Michael (Dimitrios) Petrocochino). [4] Residence: 1830s-1840s, Leghorn/Livourne/Livorno, Italy. [5]
