Antonio and Maria Crisafulli arrived in Fremantle from Sicily in 1912 and settled on a property near little Badgerup Lake. The Crisafulli family became close friends of the Leach, Darch and Martinovich families while on this property. After a short stay at that property, the family moved to a property situated on the shore of Lake Joondalup, opposite the 14 Mile Peg. This was where they started a market garden specialising in tomatoes, which later were highly prized for its marketing and export qualities. Antonio Crisafulli was a founding father of Anthony's Church. BA50/0055
