I believe in Schenectedy there are a lot of Italians from towns in Camposso and other towns in the area outside of Naples, I think I read that Youngstown was like that to with people from Campobasso


Dating as far back as the 1920s they were bootleggers. Whether or not they knew or operated together? Thats another story. And yes, Schenectady had lots of Neapolitans and Calabrese. For that matter, Youngstown did as well, especially from Calabria.
