Notaras Family Tree










George Notaras was father of Nicholas, who made the great fortune which waited in the vaults of St George in Genoa for his granddaughter to later claim.

Of note here is Theodorus Kantakouzene - Eudokia's father and Maria's husband who is the bridge linking the Notaras tree to the Kantakouzenos tree which contains Mara Brankovic.

Demetrios Laskaris Asan, brother-in-law of Loukas, was a bit of tyrant in the Morea (worthy of a blog post his own). He is almost certainly the same 'Uncle" who Helena sent off to ask Mehmed to intervene when Dorion Gattilusio tried to steal Ainos from her. Demetrios had by then sworn his allegiance to Mehmed.
