Some of the oldest ranches in the Mother Lode were started by the early Italian pioneers, The Fregulia Ranch in Jackson was started in 1852 by Domenico Fregulia. He came from Genoa.

 

 

The ranch is operated as a cattle ranch today by great-granddaughter Carolyn Fregulia and her three children. Giuseppe Rosasco came from Genoa in 1860 and by 1907, the Rosasco family owned seven ranches in Tuolumne County.

 

 

There is a old blacksmith shop on the Fregulia Ranch at Jackson, California dating from the 19th century. The family still operates a 5,000 acre ranch near Sonora.
