If you can’t find a person in a census index, try reversing their first and last names. It is possible the census taker (or other record keeper) made a simple goof. Foreign language names can easily get recorded in this way. This could easily explain why Panagiotis Verikios was enumerated in 1930 as Verikios Panagiotis. Think about it–it’s possible with English language as well. ———————————— Check out GenealogyBank’s Offer for Tip of the Day Fans!
