JOSEPH BIANCHI
JOSEPH BIANCHI.--Among the substantial
residents of the community, a factor for good and progress in moral and social
circles is Joseph Bianchi, the proprietor of the Paris French Bakery. He was born July 4, 1892, in Italy,
a son of August and Caroline Bianchi.
His father first came to the United States,
and his family followed later, and they reside in Sacramento.
Joseph
Bianchi was educated in the schools of Italy. When he was fifteen years old he came to America
with his mother, and went directly to Sacramento,
where he worked on his uncle’s farm three years, and then learned the bakery
business. In 1914 he established his own
bakery and in 1915 he bought his present place of business, which is equipped
with the latest modern improvements. He
does a great deal of retail business and some wholesale, having four delivery
automobiles to handle the distribution of his bakery goods.
Mr.
Bianchi was united in marriage with Miss Emma Apostolo,
a native daughter of Italy. They are the parents of two children: Telly, and
Caroline. He is an Odd Fellow, an Eagle
and a Druid, and a member of the California Hospital Association. He and his family stand high in the
estimation of the community where they have resided for many years. He is especially fond of hunting, and at all
times is deeply interested in the welfare of his community, aiding materially
in the county’s advancement. In national
political affairs he is a Republican.
