Photograph of Luigi Gialleonardo
Black and white photograph of Luigi Gialleonardo, date and location unknown.
Luigi is wearing a three piece black suit with a white collared shirt and a polka dot tie. A pocket watch hangs from his vest. His right hand is tucked in his pants' pocket and the left hangs by his side. He is staring straight at the camera, expressionless. He is standing in front of a brick house with a wooden porch and stairs.
Luigi immigrated to Canada on April 22, 1904 and settled in Montreal where he lived with his wife and 12 children. He worked for Canadian National Railway (CNR). During WWII, he was interned for just over one year.
