My relatives ALSO came from San Giovanni in Fiore, Calabria, Italy, and worked in the coal mines in Sunnyside, Utah. Their last name was OLIVETO -- Sam, Salvatore, and Frank. Perhaps we are somehow related, or our ancestors knew each other.
I am also trying to research their story. This was back in the teens and 1920s, and it's hard to find information, and I'd appreciate any you might have.
I have found an excellent history of Italians in Utah. Here is the link:
