Pietro alberti biography
This is the first in a new series about important Italian American figures on Long Island.
You can not tell the story of Italian Americans on Long Island without the first Italian native to settle on our land. That distinction belongs to Pietro Cesare Alberti, who immigrated from Venezia in 1635.
Alberti settled in New Amsterdam, the landmass known as Manhattan today and lived on Broad Street with his wife until 1646. He moved to Brooklyn, where they farmed 100 acres and raised their family of seven children until his death in 1655.
A small stone marker was dedicated to Alberti in Battery Park in 1958, and it was later rededicated by the Italian Historical Society of America and The Columbus Citizens Foundation.
