Italian heritage is more than
just an annual Columbus Day celebration in Pueblo - the 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 want to show the family links
from the original Columbian Federation to our OSIA 2738 lodge in Southern Colorado. It also
demonstrates that
Italian-American heritage has been alive and well in Pueblo since
the late 19th century...
If you recognize any of
the men in the photo below and know their names,
kindly drop us a note here (osia2738@gmail.com)
-
we want to show respect for our elders and connect
our links 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...
