- Notes
- "Peter Boley was the first Italian worker at the Huntsville tannery. When he returned home to Italy for his wife and family in 1906, his friend Luigi Allemano came back with him. Tannery owner C.O. Shaw was so taken with their work ethic that he asked them to return to their home town of Meana di Susa to recruit more men, which they did in 1913. Peter's sons Albert and Ting opened a bakery and dairy bar on Main Street in December 1940. Although gone now, the restaurant is still remembered fondly by many residents and summer visitors." from Huntsville with Spirit and Resolve by Susan Pryke, c2000.
