Gioanetti, Charles – There is no doubt but that Italy has given the United 
States some very responsible, hard-working citizens who are steadily forging 
ahead in whatever lines they have entered.  There are a number of Italians at 
Coal City and among them Charles Gioanetti occupies a deservedly prominent 
place, as his bakery is one of the leading business houses of its kind in the 
city.  He was born in northern Italy, January 21, 1873, a son of Joe and 
Gretta (Domenich) Gioanetti, both of whom died in Italy.  The father was a 
baker.  They had thirteen children, of whom four survive, Charles being the 
youngest.

Charles Gioanetti attended school in his native land, where he was taught the 
trade of a baker.  In 1901 he came to the United States locating at Chicago, 
where he lived until 1907, when he came to Coal City and opened his present 
establishment in partnership with G. Zeano, but is now alone.  His is the only 
Italian bakery in the city, and consequently receives a large patronage from 
his fellow countrymen, although he does a substantial amount of business with 
others who appreciate the quality of his product.  Mr. Gioanetti owns his own 
building which is conveniently located on the main street of Coal City.

In 1903 Mr. Gioanetti married Theresa Marango, and they have three children:  
Joe, Lucy and Mary.  The Catholic Church holds the family membership, while 
Mr. Gioanetti is a Republican, politically.  Energy and hard work have placed 
him where he is now, and undoubtedly will still further advance his fortunes.
