Don Hedges: There was an Andy Nick that came to our house at 124 N Main St, Middletown, In the 30`s and 40`s. I think he did work at Sorg Paper Mill at that time. There was a Paul Siderius that also came to our house about the same time.
My dad live on Canal St about that time too.


Nick Brothers, Christ, John and George aka Chaknidis 

City Restaurant RI 106 E. 3rd Ave (o) 930 Central Ave. 1919-1920

Chris Nick - RI restaurant 1327, 1323, 1391 Central 1924-1925, 1928-1936
C Nick & Spyrelis - Restaurant 1323 Central Ave. 1926-1928
C. Nick & T Stoikos & Christ - City Restaurant 106 E 3rd Ave. (o) 930 Central 1923-1924

Nick D notes: The Chris Nick story: The Nick brothers started out at 106 W 3d/930 Central which may be where the barber shop was located by the alley during our time or the building they demolished to build the Ogelsby-Barnitz (sp) bank building.  Once Nick moved to the 1300 Central Ave block, he gave his business address as 1327, 1323, 1391,and 1223.  (For a couple of years while at 106 W 3d/930 Central, after his brother died, Chris Nick was in partner- ship with my godfather, Tom Stoikos. But that also makes sense because they both were from Saranta Eklesias.)     

Nick D notes: Chaknides or Christ Nick,  1391 Central Ave:  Christ Nick had five children--Nick, Gus, Lena, Evangelia, and Mary. The real surname was Chaknides.  In the early '30s the family moved to Greece, but after a two years they returned  to Middletown and eventually moved to Dayton. Oldest son Nick Nick became a priest, Gus an engineer, etc. The mother's name was Mary.  Father Nick's father's name was Christos.  They were from the Saranta Eckleseas (Forty Churches, Kirk Kisle (Turkish)) ares of what is now Eastern Thrace. Their real last name was Tchaknides.  Sounds Turkish. My godmother Helen Stoikos was from the same area.

Nick Demetrion note: I remember where they lived in Middletown.  They did not live very far from your house.  The house was on the first or second street behind Ristanio's grocery. The house faced west. Across the street was a large empty lot; I always thought that that empty lot was a block void of houses because everyone played baseball and rode bikes there. I was four or five at the time and empty lots looked a lot bigger than they actually were. I do remember that THERE WERE NO HOUSES ACROSS THE STREET. Gus took me on my first bicycle ride in that lot. We had a spill and I had bloody knees.  I remember that empty lot or lots or block well because of that eventful ride.

Nick Demetrion note: MARY NICK of the grocery store on Clark Ave:  I remember my mother relating the story that Mary Nick came to the US illegally or with a student visa and then married.  At any rate if my memory serves me correctly, Louie Nick had to take Mary out of the country (Canada or Cuba?) and bring her back with a legit entry visa.  It cost him a bundle of cash.

Chaknides / Nick
 
Obit Gus C. Nick 83 Chicago Tribune Nov 11. 2004
     GUS C. NICK relished the challenge of fixing things. He made his living repairing and servicing steam turbines, boilers and other large machines, and he loved it. The mechanical engineer was so dedicated to his work that he would drive to North Dakota to correct a glitch in a client's machine. "He enjoyed nothing more than to explain how things and systems worked, and he applied this to everything," said Tom, one of his three sons. Mr. Nick, 83, co- founder of Somes-Nick & Co., a Chicago manufacturer's representative firm servicing and supplying companies with equipment, died Monday, Nov. 8, in Naples Community Hospital in Florida of a massive stroke. Mr. Nick of Northbrook kept a winter home in Florida. He was born in Middletown, Ohio, a son of Greek immigrants.
