Read their story

Nancy Borrello (nee) Nunziata Grinceri was born after her father had migrated to Australia 4 years earlier. Nancy had never met her father. The family all eagerly tried to catch a glimpse of their husband and father. Antonio was not at Fremantle to greet his young family - the shipping agents had advised him of the wrong day of the ship's arrival. After a day of tearfull frantic arrangements, the family was happily reunited that evening. Nancy married another migrant, Albert Borrello, and had 11 children, 33 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.
