Notes on Joseph Rossi

Joseph Rossi was born in Italy and had a large fruit orchard up on Alba Road. He had many children who, with other families on Alba Road, walked to the Newell School for education. Rosie, the Guichards and Orin Blochett got together and created Alba School so their children could stay on the mountain rather than walk long miles to school.
