Las Animas County, Colorado
Emigrants From Trentino
In The 1900 Census Registers



During the late 1800's and early 1900's many people from the villages of Trentino emigrated to Colorado, finding jobs in the  mine districts.  This list provides the names of many of the Trentini  living in Colorado (as listed in the Federal census registers) during the spring and early summer of   1900.  The names (spelling, etc) are as they appear in the census records, and in many cases have been "Americanized".
