A record of the Sciascia descendants' pilgrimage to Italy to reconnect with their Italian roots. The website includes the list of participants, itinerary, photos, and also a page about Charles Sciascia, seventh child of Nicola Sciascia and Riria McGregor, who served and fought in Gallipoli before being transferred to France and finally to Flanders in Belgium where he died in 1917. Charles' war records also be found here. From the website is also possible to access a PDF booklet entitled Nicola Sciascia written by Felicity Campbell.
