I found this article through Family Search. Araldo would have been an infant during this time, but it makes you wonder how it affected his father, Alltilio, and the marble business. Continue to post here. Then read more on Wikipedia.
I found some old pictures in my dad’s photo book from the time (post 1973) he went to Carrara to visit Almo and Eligio and family. You can see those three plus Almo’s wife and a few of Franco! The other relatives Nancy and I may have met in 1973; a banker cousin and his wife whose house was tiled in multi colored marble inside.
Dad also took photos of Alligio’s grave site. I included a wider view so that we may be able to locate this place.
