An Italian Family History

An Italian Family History is the story of the Baccigaluppi, Lagomarsino, Zuchelli, Prosser and Bonadiman families as they made their way from an impoverished 19th century Europe to a new world. We follow their journey at a time of great change throughout the world. The home they left behind was a land unified by language, divided between the French and Austrian Governments, as well as the Kingdom of Sardinia. They arrived to find the United State divided by Civil War. These were people of big dreams who strove to make more out of life. Early pioneers, these families can be traced back to the early Italian settlements of Nevada, San Antonio, Los Angeles, and Colma.
