Over 25 million Italians have emigrated between 1861 and 1960 with a migration boom between 1871 and 1915 when over 13,5 million emigrants left the country for European and overseas destinations.
I'm trying to trace my Italian grandfathers family. He was born in Luuca around 1889. His father was Battista. My grandfather came to England when he was about 16, alone.
