Casa Emigranti Italiani

Then came some of the most known and succesfull families: D'Esopo, Sagarino, Pallotti, etc. Here is a tribute to those early families who accomplished so much under the most difficult circumstances , so much so that by 1915 Italian accounted for 10% of the Hartford grand list as reported in the Hartford Courant article reproduced below.
