Our branch of the Cavalletto family immigrated to America a century ago from Vesignano, Italy.

Vesignano is a little village, too small to appear on most maps, to the north of Turin, on the road between Rivarolo Canavese and Salassa.

Other maps showing Vesignano:
– Road maps from Expdia.com.
– PDF file (Zoom in on the lower-left corner, which shows the village just north of Rivarolo Canavese.)

Near the center of the village is the local church, which the Cavalletto family has helped to support for centuries, which displays the family coat of arms.
