Gallina and Favaro
In 1906, my great great grandfather Gallina came to the US to find work during the famine in Sicily. He came over and found work and then sent for his family a year later. When my great grandmother was old enough to be married, they arranged a marriage between her and a man in Sicily and sent for him to come to the US. My great grandfather Favaro came over and married my great grandmother in 1916.
