4 Genealogy workshop: They Came from Italy More than five million Italians immigrated to the United States in the 19th and 20th centuries, contributing greatly to the fabric of America. The greatest volume of immigration from Italy occurred between 1880 and 1920, and the influences and contributions from that time are still readily apparent in New England. On Thursday, Oct. 20, at 6 p.m., the National Archives at Boston, located at 380 Trapelo Road in Waltham, presents a free program, They Came from Italy, which explores how to trace Italian roots. Well-known genealogist Marcia Melnyk, a specialist in Italian family history, will present, and an archivist from the National Archives will describe the records passenger lists, naturalizations, censuses in which one can find one s ancestors. Following the program, archives staff will be available to get folks started in their family history research. This program is free. To register, call , local , or boston.archives@nara.gov. 4
