AMERIGO E. GIANELLI
A native son who by his own
individual efforts has risen to business prominence and influence in Stockton,
is Amerigo E. Gianelli, who was born in Stockton, a
son of Joseph Gianelli, one of Stockton’s pioneers and prominent businessmen.
Amerigo E.
Gianelli was reared and educated in his native city and is the founder of the
A. E. Gianelli Company, prominent among the real estate and insurance firms of
Stockton. During recent years he has
figured in some of the largest investment transactions, for having extensive
financial connections he is in a position to handle the most important
deals. He knows the locations and values
in the city of Stockton and the fruit, dairy and alfalfa sections surrounding
from years of intimate association and knows the Delta country like a book, and
so enjoys the confidence of men and women of affairs for whom he has handled
large investments. He also conducted one
of the largest insurance businesses in central California, every kind of
protective policy being written.
The marriage of Mr. Gianelli
occurred in Stockton where he was united with Miss Edna Lamb, a native daughter
of California, and a daughter of Charles and Belle (Norcross) Lamb, and they
have one child, a stalwart son, Edward.
An active upbuilder, Mr. Gianelli has been prominent in the construction
of good roads, helping in the building of the Borden Road across the Delta and the
highway across Union Island.
