Italian heritage is more than
just an annual Columbus Day celebration in Pueblo - these men below
were the founding members of the Columbian Federation at
the turn of the last century - you might even remember your
grandfather's talking about this lodge.
We do not believe this lodge
exists anymore but if you know differently please contact us and fill
us in.
We want to show the family links
from the original Columbian Federation to our current
Sons of Italy lodge in Southern Colorado. It will also show that
the Italian-American heritage has been alive and well in Pueblo since
the late 19th century, 20th century, and now as we enter into the 21st
century.
If you recognize any of
the men in the photo below and know their names, please drop us a note
here at the lodge (info@osoi2738.com)
- we want to show respect for our elders and complete our link to the
past.
If you take a closer look at
these gentlemen they look like some of our current members except for
the sash - smile...
