Emigrazione Samese – EU Vaio E Torno is a history of the families that left their small village of Samo in Reggio Calabria, Italy for Melbourne Australia. Some came before World War I. Many fled from the difficulties of war-torn Italy after World War II. Their journey was typified by the Bonfa, D’Agostino and Verzaci families.
