We are trying to locate information on our grandfather, Guiseppe Girardi from the Conco area of italy.He was born in approx. 1885. He traveled to the US with a relative.


He settled in Freeport, PA, lived in a boarding house and worked in the mines. He later opened Girardi Grocery in Freeport, the only grocery store in the town.

He married Marina Trettel and had six children. Emma, Al, Joseph, Helen, Karl and Rita.

If you have any family history you can share with us, we would love to learn about it.

If you don't mind a little side bar, I was reminiscing with my friends about how life has changed since we were kids. I remember Girardi's Grocery store as a young boy (Late 60's/early 70's). My friends and I would buy a pop at the store and sit on the stoop in the summer evenings, watching the world go by. Makes me smile.
