History
The Italian Consul visited Changerup in 1905 to assess the area as a possible location for additional Italian migrants. Some Italians, such as the Piani family, had already settled in the district. Subsequently, many more migrants settled in Changerup. These included the Leusciatti, Imberti, Vellotti, Gianatti and Marinoni families. These families have developed a strong community spirit in the Kojonup area.
Angelo Giuseppe and Louisa Marinoni migrated with their 3 children to WA in 1911 from Britain. Louisa died in 1947.
