- had travelled to America with his parents in the year 1900 sailing from Le Havre on the steamship La Gascogne. From the Port of New York the Giacopazzi family moved to County Arizona where he and his father both worked as Miners in the area.
Whilst in America he married Filomena Brattesani. She was the daughter of Giuseppe Brattesani and Lucia Maria Brattesani [my own direct line family].
They married in America and had six children. For whatever reasons at that time they changed their name to Jacobs and their children were documented in the 1930 census with this surname. By this date Filomena had divorced her husband. He went on to marry three other women and their story is documented below.
There are a large family of descendants from this line in California today 2022.
