Dawson, New Mexico
Dawson, New Mexico Frazzini Emiliano Frazzini Pagina 1 di 36 Lucrezia Carlini Benilda Frazzini DiVecchia Site Home Dawson, New Mexico On this page, I will put all the miscellaneous information I have about people who lived or worked in Dawson. My grandfather, Emiliano Frazzini, went to Dawson, to the home of his uncle, Teridano diTella, when he came to the US in 1912. I don't know anything about his time there. The people on this page made up part of the Italian community there so these are the people who he probably knew and interacted with. Maybe someday, I will find the descendants of these folks and they might know more about his time in Dawson. Dawson is, of course, gone, with the last mine closing in 1950. The town was torn down almost completely and shipped out. The town site is now private property and gated. The cemetery, though, is outside the gate and open to the public. The family names you will find here include Carlini, diLorenzo (Lorenzo), Frazzini, Palumbo, Ricci, Iannacchione, Capone and della Croce. I'm pretty sure that all of these people came from San Pietro Avellana. My grandmother was a Carlini and someday I may be related to these Carlini's. Some other nearby towns were some of these people live are Gardiner, Van Houten and Sugarite, NM. Those are Ghost Towns just like Dawson. Here is a simple map showing how close together are Dawson NM, Raton, NM and Trinidad, CO (where my grandfather was naturalized in 1904). Dawson is at Latitude 36.663069, Longitude -104.774999, UTM Zone 13, Easting 520108, Northing 4057520 , Elevation 1931 meters (6382 feet ±50 feet) My 28 Apr 2004 visit to Mt. Calvary Cemetery in Raton. My 28 Apr 2004 visit to Dawson Cemetery. Here is a graphical representation of the various Dawson family trees as I know them. These are LARGE files meant to be viewed on screen or printed. When printed, the printing is small but still readable.

Stephen Frazzini, Gary Ferrero, Robert Gatti, Marco Frazzini, and Chis Constantino are descendants these families. 2004 Dawson Reunion Toby Smith told me about the Dawson Reunion: "It is held every two years, the next one taking place Sunday, September 5, 2004. If you want to find out anything about Dawson, that's a pretty good place to start. The picnic is held on the old http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 2 di 36 townsite here in New Mexico, which is private property and thus normally closed. Perhaps someone at the reunion will have information about your relatives. Generally, about 1,000 people attend, most of them kin of Dawsonites. A good contact for the Reunion is Carol Myers. You can reach her in Albuquerque at 505-2998940. I don't know her email. Carol will be able to give you details on the event and perhaps can answer some of your questions." I spoke with Carol on 27 May 2004. She confirmed the date and said the gates will be open from 9AM to 6PM. A Mass will be said at the cemetery at 4:30 PM. The next reunion will be in 2006. Here are some Dawson links: http://www.ghosttowns.com/states/nm/dawson.html http://www.ghosttowngallery.com/htme/dawson.htm http://www.legendsofamerica.com/HC-VintagePhotos-4-Dawson.html ColfaxCounty NMGenweb Page My great Uncle Felice Amato Carlini (my grandmother's brother who settled in Ely, NV) also went to Teridano diTella's home in Dawson, NM when he arrived in the US (From Ellis Island: 15 Feb 1912, 17 yrs, single, to: Uncle Teridano diTella, Dawson NM, father Giuseppe). Jim Malecki of Pompano Beach FL who grandparents lived in nearby Koehler NM, told me about the book "Coal Town - The Life and Times of Dawson, New Mexico", author Toby Smith, ISBN 0941270-82-3. He said it was an excellent history of Dawson and the names diLorenzo & Carlini are in the interview list. I just got a copy of the book from the San Diego Public Library. http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 3 di 36 I've contacted Toby Smith and he graciously gave me permission to use a few photos and quotes from his book. They are all ©Toby Smith. I'll put the photos and quotes in boxes so you can identify them. Over 100 people were interviewed between Feb 1992 and April 1993. Names that I've come across and are on this web page include: Ernest Carlini (son of Carmine Carlini and Maria Carmina diTella, born 1916) Arthur diLorenzo (son of Domenico and Maria Colaianni, born 1912, Aguilar, Colorado) Sabina diLorenzo Cericola Faba (daughter of Domenico and Maria Colaianni, born 1906, Duluth, Minnesota) Emily Palumbo McIntyre (daughter of Domenico Palumbo and Maria Capone, born 1922) Laura Palumbo Stratton (daughter of Domenico Palumbo and Maria Capone, born 1917) Sara Palumbo Wilson (daughter of Domenico Palumbo and Maria Capone, born 1918) Alice diLorenzo Howard (daughter of Domenico and Maria Colaianni, born 1930, Dawson, New Mexico) This is very good book that gives a feeling for what it was like to live and work in Dawson. It forgoes facts and figures to concentrate on stories from the residents of Dawson. Note on the Census and St John the Baptist RC Church records - I tried to transcribe the names here just as they were spelled on the census sheets and records. This means that many of the names are not spelled correctly. Microfilms http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 4 di 36 A very useful microfilm, LDS #16763, St John the Baptist RC Church, Dawson, NM, includes Baptisms, Marriages and Deaths from about 1917 to about 1945. St John the Baptist RC Church, Dawson, NM. From "Coal Town - The Life and Times of Dawson, New Mexico", ©Toby Smith. St. John the Baptist -- a sturdy, stone building with simple crosses atop its three facades, and an imposing and steep flight of steps out front and concrete-hard pews within -- was one of the few buildings in Dawson not built by Phelps Dodge. Mass at St. John the Baptist was held daily, at 6:00 A.M., though most worshipers didn't go the church until the 8:30 service on Sunday mornings. At 10:30 A.M. on Sundays another service was held there, known as the Mexican Mass. Both the sermon and the music at the second second service were in Spanish. Another pair of useful films are FHL #16882 and FHL #16883 which contain the records from St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Raton, NM. These include baptisms, marriages and deaths from about 1890 to 1956. I went through these films and added info to this page on 12 Mar 2005. Another film is FHL #16881 which contains the records from St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Raton, NM. I went through this film but I could not find any family names of interest. The next films I need are from Springer, NM, FHL #16984-16987 from St Joseph's Catholic Church in Springer, MN. I received an email in April 2005 from Mary Ann. She told me about one Frazzini record there and that there may be others. I've examined #16984 which has birth records see the section below on Springer for what I found.. Dawson, New Mexico http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 5 di 36 15 May 2004 - Sally and I just got back from a long road trip to Dawson and Raton.

With mother Maria Antonia Carlini 28 yrs. Lived with mother-in-law, Giuseppa Morelli in SPA. Going to her husband / his father Carmine Frazzini 2136 15th St Denver CO (that's Prospero Frazzini's address). So Carmine is the father of Angelo. Carmine's mother is Giuseppa Morelli. From a rootsweb.com database, Carmine was born 20 Jul 1881 - no SPA records are available for that year. But I think I found his parents and siblings, look below on this page. 1910 Census - Dawson (Note : in all the census data, I did not correct any spelling errors that I found.

When Palumbo died in 1936, at age twenty-three, cut down one Sunday afternoon in July by a lightning bolt on a baseball diamond in Raton, it would cause a deep religious rift in Dawson. Palumbo was an enormously friendly young man who came from a large and well-liked family. He had wanted to be a coach after high school, but, with no jobs available, he went into the mines and soon became a union organizer. An athlete, Palumbo had wavy-haired good looks and a laugh that never seemed to cease. Indeed, he was laughing as he ran across the infield to his spot at second base on the afternoon lightning shredded his ball cap. Palumbo's death shocked the town, not just because he died so young, but because his died doing what Dawsonites believed to be sacrosanct: playing sports. And yet the real shock occurred afterward. Because Jiggy Palumbo had married Leola Meikle, a Protestant, and had gone off to Taos to tie the knot in front of a justice of the peace, and because Palumbo had not received the last sacraments when he died, Couturier refused to hold the young man's Mass. Nor did the priest permit Palumbo to be buried in the Catholic section of the Dawson cemetery, along side his mother, who only four months before at the age of forty-eight had died of pneumonia. Palumbo had been extremely close to his mother; on the morning that he died, he had told his family to be sure to put flowers on her grave. Eventually, a funeral was held for Palumbo at the Community Church, and the service drew one of the biggest crowds that Dawson had ever seen. Everyone came, it seemed, except Father Joseph. ... The senior Palumbo had been so grief-stricken by his son's death and the subsequent furor it caused, happening to soon after his wife's passing, that he had refused to let the family hold a http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 11 di 36 wake. On top of that, Domenico Palumbo had stayed away from church for a good long time and had only returned when a new priest took over.

He is survived by his wife of 53 years, Margaret Mary http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 17 di 36 DiLorenzo; son, Jeffrey A. DiLorenzo and wife, Conda L. of Rio Rancho; granddaughters, TyAnna L. Martin of Albuquerque and Miya E. Martin of Rio Rancho; grandsons, PFC Charles B. DiLorenzo of Ft. Hood, TX, Michael T. Martin of Rio Rancho and Sean E. Martin also of Rio Rancho; sisters, Sabina Faba of Albuquerque, Pearl Carlini and husband, Sam of Raton, NM, Lucille Fisher of Dearborn, MI and Dorothy Tome and husband, Frank of Pasadena, CA and numerous nieces and nephews. Tony graduated from Dawson High School in 1941 and enlisted in the US Army in 1942 where he served in the Pacific Theater including beachheads in the Philippines, New Guinea, Luzon and Aleutian Islands. He was awarded the Purple Heart and Bronze Star among numerous other decorations. After leaving the Army as Tech Sergeant in 1945 he returned to Dawson, NM where he worked for Phelps Dodge Corp. until 1949. He and Margaret then moved to Ft. Worth, TX where he began his career with the U.S. Postal Service. Tony was transferred to Albuquerque where he retired in 1980 after 31 years of service. He was an avid golfer and horse racing fan. Tony was a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and brother who will be deeply missed by his family and friends. We look forward to the day when we will all be reunited with him in the presence of the LORD. Services will be held on Monday, December 4, 2000, 12:30p.m. at French Mortuary, Wyoming Chapel, 7121 Wyoming Blvd. NE, with Father Clarence Galli, officiating. There are sad stories, however, and surely one of the most heartbreaking occurred when Margaret Mary Beall married Tony DiLorenzo in 1947 and Margaret Mary's mother, so incensed, refused to speak to her daughter, an only child, for almost forty years.

I believe that this is the "Joe Lorenzo" that lived in Dawson. In the 1930 census, this Joe Lorenzo's age is 47. That would have him being born in 1883. Giuseppe's oldest daughter, Florence (?), was born in Minnesota. I also believe that Domenico diLorenzo (or Dominic Lorenzo) is another brother of the family that previously lived in Minnesota. Domenico would have been born around 1881 but there are not microfilmed records from that year. Domenico's oldest daughter, Sabina, was born in Minnesota. See the newly added note above from Ellis Island records showing Domenico and Maria going his father Silvestro in Aurora, MN in 1905. Domenico diLorenzo was born 26 Jun 1881 and Maria Colaianni was born 18 Jul 1887. Both of these years are missing from the SPA microfilm. Palumbo Information from SPA Microfilms Film 1448676 #68 Nati 3 Oct 1884 Domencantonio Palumbo f: Giuseppe 46y m: Giuseppa Mariani I believe this is our Domenico Palumbo. Carmine Frazzini and wife Maria Antonia Carlini in Dawson Another prominent family from SPA was Carmine Frazzini and his wife Maria Antonia Carlini. I found their son, Angelo and then both Angelo's and Carmine's deaths as listed earlier on this page. I am pretty sure that Maria Antonia Carlini is the sister of Amico Carlini (see email below from Shirley).

Le Dora Frazzini Ernestina Frazzini Angelo Frazzini Stella Frazzini St. Joseph's Catholic Church in Springer, NM (from film #16984) Mary Ann Trent, who is researching in Springer, NM, alerted me to this entry on the film from St. Joseph's Catholic Church. She wrote: "I looked closely at the Frazzini record, and the father was Carmine and mother was Maria Carlini. The child was born in Dawson on December 26, 1909 and baptized at St. Joseph in Springer on January 2, 1910. It looks like the child was Ledovia Stella Giuseppa, and the godparents were Domenico Sandocci and Maria (?) Sandocci." So this is Ledonia "LeDora" Stella Giuseppa Frazzini, the daughter of Carmine and Maria Frazzini. I previously had her birth year as 1910. This entry corrects that. May 2005: I received the FHL film and found quite a few people with SPA names. Apparently, this church was the church attended by people from Dawson before St. John the Baptist Catholic Church was built there. These records start in 1882 and goes to 1921. The Dawson entries started about 1902. I could see that Italian names started showing up about 1907. All of the people listed below were marked to have lived in Dawson. By 1918, there were no more Dawson entries since the church in Dawson opened about 1917. These are all Baptism entries. My comments about spelling, etc are in parenthesis.

With mother Maria Antonia Carlini 28 yrs. Lived with mother-in-law, Giuseppa Morelli in SPA. Going to her husband / his father Carmine Frazzini 2136 15th St Denver CO (that's Prospero Frazzini's address). So Carmine is the father of Angelo. Carmine's mother is Giuseppa Morelli. From a rootsweb.com database, Carmine was born 20 Jul 1881 - no SPA records are available for that year. From this, I don't have Carmine's birth record or his father's name. But I looked in the records for births with Giuseppa Morelli as the mother.

I'm pretty sure that Maria Ricci is the sister of Michele Ricci (see email below from Shirley). I found that Amico Carlini and Maria Ricci were god-parents in the baptism of Fernando Gatti (b 5 Nov 1917) and Carmina & Cristina Musilli (twins) (b 19 Nov 1919). http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 26 di 36 This film contains a lot of information about these families, only part of which I have on this page: Carmine Carlini and Carmina di Tella. Dominic Palumbo and Maria Capone. Florindo Fraini and Rose Iannacchione. Giuseppe Brandolino and Carmela Sanelli (These two family names were not from San Pietro Avellana. I believe they may have been from Caramanico, a town next to my father's home town of Sant'Eufemia a Maiella. The family names are common in the microfilmed records from that town. Doing an Ellis Island search on the names shows that about 80% of Brandolino's were from Caramanico.

CONVERSATION WITH PEARL DILORENZO CARLINI July, 2001 Arrived in New York, not sure if they worked in the mine - went to Duluth Minnesota to work in the mine. Had to be on knees with short pik and decided to leave. Story of women not getting off the train - when Aunt Laura and grama (Maria) came with Joe and Domenic to America they were on their way to Minnesota on the train. When the train stopped, the men got off but the women didn’t. The train left the station and the men realized the women hadn’t followed them. The men spoke some English, but the women knew no English. The men contacted the station master and he wired ahead to let the people at the next stop know so they could get the women off the train and return them to the waiting husbands. Imagine how scared they must have been. Born in Duluth to Dominic and Maria Sabina Betty Born in Duluth to Joe and Laura (Crow) Flora Silver Born in Aguilar, Colorado Arthur November 1911 Born in Ludlow Pearl January 1913 Born in Dawson Emma 1915 Dorothy Lucille Toby Alice Jenny? 6/8/19 Pearl said that she was one day old when they hurried to leave Ludlow. It was January and snowing and her dad came home and said they had to get out of there. The people were against the union and felt they were in danger. They http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 29 di 36 went to Aunt Christina’s in Denver and that day 14 women and children were killed in Ludlow. (Mark's note: for some photos of a new monument to the slain, look at this web site: http://www.rebelgraphics.org/ludlow.html .) They also lived in Sugarete, Yankee, Koehler and Dawson Grama died in 1944 and Jenny in 1948 Pearl was 7 when Emma died at age 5 Pearl tells the story of seeing Emma about a week after she died at the window. She also saw her mother with an apron on after she died. Pearl was grieving for her mother uncontrollably, and one night she saw her mother and her mother said, “you won’t let me rest”. Pearl said Papa’s sisters were Julia who lived in Swastika, Christina and Angelina who lived in Denver. Sam’s dad (Carmini Carlini) was 12 years old when he came to the USA and worked with mules. Sam left home at 14 and went to Texas. When he lived in Aguilar he lived in a boxcar and bought groceries in Trinidad. Sam worked in the store from the time he was 14-18 and then in the old fields of Texas. He quit school in the 5th grade. Pearl and Sam owned a grocery store in Jal and then in Raton, New Mexico. Jenny and Toby worked for Pearl and Sam in the store in Jal Mr Felan was the Superintendent at the Dawson school. Special to Pearl. Grampa Franich came to see the DiLorenzo’s. Wanted to meet the family of the man his daughter was going to marry.

Hello, I was looking for the date she came to New Mexico to complete some papers to finish closing up my mother's estate and stumbled on your site with the grave markers. My uncle was Everni Arcangeli, married to Mary Di Lorenzo, a favorite aunt of mine who still lives in Raton. He died of cancer, the primary site being breast, as did 4 of his sisters. I was born in Dawson and lived there until they closed the mine in 1950. My father, Joseph Catallo was born there and my mother, Mary Arcangeli the oldest of the Arcangeli family, immigrated there when she was 5. I have put her name on the marker Iaccoca has on Ellis Island and was able to get a copy of the manifest and photo of the ship she and my grandmother came on. I recognize many of the names you have on your site from the Carlini family, like Mary and the son who died in the war, Jay Cericola I remember from school. I didn't realize he died so young. My grandparents on both sides are buried in the Dawson cemetery, as are my cousins from the Cincornelli and Arcangeli families. Many of the relatives live in Raton. I am sure you are aware there is a book on Dawson that had anecdotes from many of the residents and photos of the school, churches,etc. I really enjoyed your photos, all of them, having been in Santa Fe, Taos and just about anywhere else. My family lives in Albuquerque, a sister, brother in law, niece and great niece. My mother just died last year at 94 and my father died, as a result of medical negligence at 88, 5 years before her. Any questions I can answer, I would be pleased to do so. I am 69 so I don't have too many senior moments. Thanks again for sharing the photos. Lucy Ann (formerly Lucia before my parents changed it when I started school) Howard (widowed at 52) Wines (remarried at 60) who lives in Beverly Hills Florida Hello Mark, I don't know much about my family's background. I never thought to ask until it was too late. This is what I know about my mother who is the sister of Everni Arcangeli whose tombstone you had a photo of because he was married to Mary Di Lorenzo who is connected to your family tree. She is still living and went to Italy with her son, David, to visit the Arcangeli's who are still in Italy. When we went through my mother's effects after she died, I found a sheet of http://www.silogic.com/genealogy/Dawson,%20NM.html 09/11/2005 Dawson, New Mexico Pagina 31 di 36 paper with the following information: My grandparents were Lucia Ceccotti and Guiseppe Arcangeli married September 27th 1908 Regista No2 P. 27 of the Parish of Colliponi. St. Gregory's is the parish and it is in Genga District of Ancona. Maternal grandmother's name was Susanna Petroni and maternal grandfather's name was Sebastiano Ceccotti. Paternal Grandmother's name was Marie Domencia Sebbatini and paternal grandfather was Antonio Arcangeli. The children in the Ceccotti family were Liva, Barbara, Mauela, Fiore, Sebastiano and Forido or Forida. Everni Arcangeli's parents Gusippe Arcangeli was born April 1885 and died April 30, 1929 at the age of 44. Lucia, his mother, was born on December 10, 1882 and died April 1935 at the age of 53. I was born August 25th, 1935 and my grandmother was living with my parents when she died so you can see how I came about my name. When I started school they "Americanized" my name and added my father's mother's name Ann, hence Lucy Ann. This is probably more information than you could ever want but I am not certain of the connection to Everni Arcangeli nor the detail of your family tree tracing but since it was available, I shared it. Of my father's family Catallo, I don't know much. His mother died young of a heart condition and my short stature and facial features are supposed to be similar according to what an old lady once told me. There is so much one could say about Dawson. It was a great place to grow up. The culture did have distinct ethnic groups but the barriers were not prominent probably because of the dangerous work. I learned to like slavic food like stuffed cabbage, mexican food, don't remember too many Polish families but there might have been some and we even had a couple of black families. I think you can get a flavor of the life from the book, even though some of it was not exactly accurate. My mother was annoyed my uncle Tony said they sold liquor during the prohibition. Many people they know did but not our family, they kept and drank all the wine and beer they made. The grapes used to come in a box car on the railroad and families would go down and get their wooden boxes of red and white grapes and make great "Dago" wine, some of which was very potent. I don't remember your relative but I remember them talking about them when he was buried. Everyone went to funerals, it was a community event, probably because of the United Mine Workers union as there really was a solidarity.. All the men had sprigs of some evergreen in their lapels and threw them in the grave as they passed by much as they do now with roses. I enjoyed viewing your wedding photos. It looked like everyone had a great time. John is my second husband. My first husband Loyd, died in 1987. John and I were married in Gibralter since we failed to defeat the French bureaucracy since we originally went to France to be married in a castle in Durgugone. Thanks again for sharing.
