Many many thanks to the person who gave the link to this fab website:
www.scottipress.org.uk, which is all about the Vauxhall/Islington areas of
Liverpool, and which has a section about Little Italy (and a photo of the
street where my great-uncle lived - the Gods are good today!!). The
following message was posted on the site, which might be of interest to some
listers:
"To acknowledge what was to be called 'Scotland Road's Little Italy' the
Vauxhall History & Heritage Group has instigated efforts to have a plaque
designed, made and unveiled to'SCOTLAND ROAD' S - LITTLE ITALY'. In order to
ensure that this plaque can pay tribute to the valuable contribution that
'Little Italy' made to the history & heritage of Scotland Road the Vauxhall
History & Heritage Group wish to involve all residents of 'Little Italy's
former community and their relatives. The Group also wishes to make contact
with members of former Italian communities in Great Britain and across the
world - America, Australia, Canada - and indeed with Italian communities
still in existence. Hopefully the plaque project can reunite these
communities with a shared interest in appreciation of their history &
heritage.
If you can help spread the word and if you can help with any form of support
the Vauxhall History & Heritage will be very grateful".
