My Italian Family History
Fugazzi Coat of Arms
There were 7 children of Luigi Fugazzi and Anna Brignoli. This picture was taken between 1895 to 1899.
The man is Luigi Giovanni Fugazzi, Uncle John's and my grandmother's father. The woman in the middle holding the baby is Anna Brignoli, Uncle John's mother. The younger woman next to the older one is my grandmother Louise. The boy next to her is Uncle John( my notes say that my grandmother brought him back to the US on one of her trips there). The 2 girls in the back are Rose who is resting on her arm and Teresa to Rose's left. The 3 children on the bottom are Emilia, Marie, and Nicolo. I am not sure which girl is which but Marie had severe back scoliosis so I am assuming she's the one on the far left. Rocco is the baby . This info is from cousin Louise Gooding.

Giovanni Santo Fugazzi migration news;
During the mass emigration from Italy during the century between 1876 to 1976, the U.S. was the largest
single recipient of Italian immigrants in the world. However, their impact was not as great as countries like
Argentina and Brazil. That was due to the fact that hundreds of thousands of immigrants from nations all
over the world were migrating to the U.S. at the same time and American born natives already made up the
majority ethnic group. The Italians did play a major role though, socially with individuals rising to national
stature in many different fields.
In 1850, less than 4,000 Italians were reportedly in the U.S. However in 1880, merely four years after the
influx of Italian immigrants migrated, the population skyrocketed to 44,000, and by 1900, 484,027. From
1880 to 1900, southern Italian immigrants became the predominant Italian immigrant and stayed that way
throughout the mass migration. Despite the increase numbers, the Italians were not the largest
foreign-origin group in American cities. Outnumbered by groups migrating for decades before them. Italians
only made-up 1.5% of the U.S. population at its peak.
In the U.S. where the abundance of cheap land could no longer be found, the mostly agricultural Italians in
Italy, became mostly urban. Starting from the bottom of the occupational ladder working up, they worked
jobs such as shoe shinning, ragpicking, sewer cleaning, and whatever hard, dirty, dangerous jobs others
didn't want. Even children worked at an early age, as in Italy, even at the expense of their educations. The
Italians were known for rarely accepting charity or resorting to prostitution for money, another reflection of
patterns in Italy.
As in many other places in the world, Italians in America clustered into groups related to their place of
origin. For example, the Neapolitans and Sicilians settled in different parts of New York, and even people
from different parts of Sicily settled on different streets. However, what seldom occurred in U.S. were
Italians enclaves, or all-Italians neighborhoods. The Italians would disperse themselves in other immigrant
groups, such as, the Irish, the Jews, the Germans, and the Poles, while remaining in their clusters. Also,
immigrants usually settled in different regions of U.S. based in where they came from in Italy. The Sicilians
resided in New Orleans, the Neapolitans and Calabrians in Minnesota, and mostly northern Italians in
California. However most of the Italians were concentrated in the mid Atlantic states in 1910 with 472,000
in New York and nearly 200,000 in Pennsylvania at the time.
The living conditions for the Italians tended to be over crowded and filthy all over the U.S.. Italian laborers
also tended to skimp on food in a desperate attempt to save money. However, after time and new
generations of Italians, the dirtiness of their homes disappeared along with the complaint of weak Italians
from lack of nutrition.
The Italians were noted for their diligence and sobriety as workmen. In the late 19th and 20th centuries,
Italians often became fishermen, shoemakers, waiters, fruit sellers, and tradesmen. Most were unskilled
laborers though, working in mines and construction jobs. Over the years, the Italians rose up the economic
scale but acquiring job skills in blue-collar job rather than by becoming educated and entering that
profession

Former Fugazzi’s Bar and Grill, 305 Sixth Ave (now LensCrafters)
Unfortunately, nothing remains of Fugazzi’s Bar and Grill, which Kerouac used as a hangout for the characters in his novel The Subterraneans. The bar also makes an appearance in Ginsberg’s epic poem Howl, which mentions people “Who sank all night in submarine light of Bickfords floated out and sat through the stale beer afternoon in desolate Fugazzi’s, listening to the crack of doom on the hydrogen jukebox.”

Regions of Italy
Italian-Americans in the United States are found in large concentrations in many metropolitan areas of the United States. In particular, states such as New York, Rhode Island, Connecticut, Michigan, Florida, California, Illinois, New Jersey, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Massachusetts have larger populations of Italian-Americans than other states by national average. According to a recent United Census Bureau estimate, there are 17.8 million Americans are of Italian or Sicilian descent.[1] Communities of Italian Americans were established in most major industrial cities of the early 20th century, such as Baltimore, Boston (particularly in the "North End"), Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Providence, St. Louis, Chicago, Cleveland, Buffalo, Tampa and Kansas City and New York City, which boasts the largest Italian-American population, which lives in several concentrated communities around the Five-Borough area. New Orleans, Louisiana was the first site of immigration of Italians and Sicilians into America in the 19th century, before Italy was a unified nation-state. This was before New York Harbor and Baltimore became the preferred destinations for Italian immigrants.
In sharp contrast to the Northeast, most of the Southern states (exceptions being the Atlantic coast of Florida, Tampa, New Orleans, and a fast-growing community in Atlanta) have very few Italian-American residents. During the labor shortage in the 19th and early 20th centuries, planters in the Deep South did attract some Italian immigrants to work as sharecroppers, but they soon left the extreme anti-Italian discrimination and strict regimen of the plantations for towns or other states.
The state of California has had Italian-American residents since the 1850s. Since the 1950s, like many Americans, Italian Americans have moved to the slower-paced and rapidly growing Western states, including Arizona, Colorado, and Nevada.
Today, New York and New Jersey have the largest populations of Italian-Americans in the United States, while Rhode Island and Connecticut have the highest overall percentage in relation to their respective overall populations.
