Thank you to John
Dickie for allowing me to reproduce this photo from the Broughton
History Society Collection. The picture was included
in a Broughton History Society exhibition, held in 2006, with the
caption:
Maria Pacitti'
"Maria Pacitti's parents, from a
village near Naples, opened their shop at No 73 Broughton Street
(where the Mediterraneo is now) with money borrowed from a brother
in Glasgow. Maria
married Sebastian Valente: the photo shows her and her
daughter, Maria Immaculata, in 1907."
