Description: Covers the history, culture, and genealogy of the immigrants to the US from Isola delle Femmine, Sicily.
Discover the history, culture, and genealogy of the immigrants to the United States from Isola delle Femmine, Sicily. Isola delle Femmine is a commune in Palermo Province in Sicily. It is located on the Mediterranean coast in northwestern Sicily, 15km from the City of Palermo. Beginning in the 1890’s, a substantial number of the inhabitants of this community immigrated to the United States. Primarily fisherman, these simple, hard working folk came seeking opportunity. Originally they settled in California, primarily in Black Diamond (present day Pittsburg) or to a lesser extent in the neighboring community of Martinez. Later many moved to Monterey, California, seeking new opportunities in California's infant sardine industry. Today, a century later, the descendants of these Sicilian fisherman can be found through out the U.S.
