At the beginning of the last century, there were just over 11,000
Italians in Ohio. While many of the earliest immigrants settled
along Lake Erie, a growing number ventured south to the state
capital, a city located at the confluence of the Scioto and
Olentangy Rivers and named for a famed Italian explorer. Importing
the rich traditions of the old country, Columbus Italian families
stayed close to each other, living in great concentrations on St.
Clair Avenue and in the Flytown and Bottoms neighborhoods,
Grandview Heights, Marble Cliff, and San Margherita. The
generations of families who once called these Italian enclaves home
have now largely dispersed but still form a community--colorful,
hardworking, and fiercely loyal--bonded by the three most basic
principles of Italian culture and the theme of the Columbus Italian
Festival: "Faith, Family, and Friends."
