Bardales, Markos Angelos Person Probably identical with the poet Markos Angelos, who wrote the poem on Eros and other verses on the emperor. He was active in the middle of the 14th century. Mentioned in the chrysobull charter of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan for the Batopedi Monastery from April 1348 and in the act of the Ecumenical Patriarch Kallistos and the patriarchal synod from September 1350. He appears as κῦρ and οἰκεῖος of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and οἰκεῖος of the Byzantine Emperor Ioannes VI. Kantakuzenos. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan confirmed in April 1348 the endowment of Markos Angelos to the Batopedi Monastery. It consisted of chapells, houses, fields and vineyards from his patrimonial property in the area of Zichna (ὁ οἰκεῖος τῆ βασιλεία μου κῦρ Μάρκος ὁ Ἄγγελος εὐκτήρια, ὀσπήτια, χωράφια καὶ ἀμπέλια ἐκ γονικῆς αὐτῶν ὑποστάσεως ὅσα καὶ οἷα εἰσίν). He was among noble witnesses in the case of hieromonk Niphon before the patriarchal synod in September 1350.
Isaris Georgios Person Deceased by April 1374. He appears as κῦρ, οἰκεῖος of the Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan and the Byzantine Emperor Ioannes V. Palaiologos in the sources. He was in charge of Megas Drungarios τοῦ στόλου, 1344. Eparchos, 1348–1350. Megas Primikerios, 1366. Megas Konostaulos, 1367–1374. He was married to Xene Isarina. He had two sons (Michael Angelos Isaris and Theodoros Komnenos Isaris). His son-in-law was Georgios Stanisas. He was a wealthy landowner, who possessed several estates around Thessalonica. He was probably the student of Georgios Akindynos. He also corresponded with him. He was a supporter of the anti-Palamite party. When he turned his coat, he was criticized by Georgios Akindynos as a traitor. He was among the witnesses to the charter of protovestiarites Ioannes Dukas from September 1344, who rejected the claim of the revenue office on the part of the place Diabolokampos, a property of the Docheiariu Monastery. He joined in summer 1345 the proponents of the Byzantine Emperor Ioannes VI Kantakuzenos. He was nearly killed during the revolt of the Zealots. He met Gregorios Palamas on Moun Athos between September 1347 and September 1348. The Serbian Emperor Stefan Uroš IV Dušan donated in April 1348 the dependant peasants in the area of Hermelia, which belonged to Georgios Isaris. The Byzantine Emperor Ioannes V. Palaiologos gave in December 1350 several landed estates to Demetrios Kokalas in addition to his oikonomia. He mandated Georgios Isaris with Manuel Chageres to execute the task. He had a 11 years lasting quarrel with the Hilandar Monastery. He required the sum, which Georgios Stanisas, his son-in-law, paid in order to obtain adelphata. When Stanisas died, Isaris tried to get the money of his son-in-law back. He did not even hesitate to forge documents related to the affair. He was a friend of Makarios Chumnos and probably sponsored his foundation of Nea Moni in Thessalonica.
Metrophanes Person Mentioned in several sources between 1334/1347 and 1354. He was Metropolitan of Melnik from 1347 to 1352 and καθολικὸς κριτὴς τῶν ῾Ρωμαίων in 1351. He confirmed in November 1334 or 1349 the endowment of the Monastery Theotokos tu Dempelake by the Bishop Kyprianos of Pheremai to the Monastery of Saint John Baptist near Serres. He signed the Tomos of 1351. He was sent twice in 1352 by Ioannes VI Kantakuzenos on a unsuccesful mission to Ioannes V. Palaiologos, who was at that time in Didymoteichon. He was the assessor of Synod in Constantinople in September 1350, December 1353 and probably also in January and June 1354.
