The Americas


USA 20th Century to Present

According to the Ellis Island immigration records, the first people with the Varsano surname to arrive in the United States of America did so a few years after the turn of the 20th Century. Pasquale Varsano is listed as the relative and friend of several immigrants from Italy that arrived in 1907. Presumably, Pasquale arrived just a few years before his family and friends but it’s possible that he was born in the USA. Most of the Varsano family still lived in the Balkan region of Europe during the early 20th Century. By the 1920s, there was a signficant uptick in Varsano immigrants coming through Ellis Island due to wars, discrimination, and economic hardship in Europe.
