Thank you very much for searching, Michael!
In the meantime I found some more articels about Constantinos Maratos - even another german one. It dates back to 1961. And although nowadays in Germany nobody is recognizing Richard Bruno Hauptmann as a German - I can see now that this was different in 1961 and also in 1977 (the first article I found).
I am waiting for news from my greek cousin - but in Europe it is after midnight and almost everybody is sleeping.
Thank you - und Gute Nacht
Ella

Hi Michael, in an article by "Die Zeit", a very reputable german weekly journal, it says that Konstantinos Maratos lived before and while the kidnapping in a country house nearby the Lindbergh House. And it says that he (Maratos) was a mutual friend of Hauptmann and Fisch. Is this true? Is it verified? www.zeit.de/1977/16/der-falsche-auf-dem-elektrischen-stuhl/seite-2Thank you Ella

Hi Michael, in an article by "Die Zeit", a very reputable german weekly journal, it says that Konstantinos Maratos lived before and while the kidnapping in a country house nearby the Lindbergh House. And it says that he (Maratos) was a mutual friend of Hauptmann and Fisch. Is this true? Is it verified? The FBI Memos concerning Maratos and his possible connection to this crime are very clear that the first time the FBI heard of Maratos was from the article written in "Le Figaro" on November 15, 1961. What's also clear is that Director Hoover wanted an analysis of the article in question. Everything comes back negative in the documentation that I have. Furthermore, I have read all of the NJSP area search Reports and I have never seen Maratos's name listed in connection with any property near Highfields or in the Hopewell area, in fact, I've never seen it outside of the attention concerning this article. Of course there may be a source I've never seen or heard of, and/or Maratos was using an alias and is listed under a different name in these searches. But I think combined with a sincere attempt by the FBI to look into this article then not coming up with anything, I am extremely doubtful of this story and I suspect it's nothing more then a man with money killing himself which caused the locals to "fill in the rest of the details" by adding a Lindbergh connection.

If anyone responds to the email above please do so at your own risk. I am somewhat suspicious since they seem to be ignoring my replies, and won't post here instead of trying to solicit the email. Next, their posts are coming from a Greek server, however, they are using a proxy which may (or may not) indicate nefarious intent. Anyway, in this day and age I recommend against it.
