The following information is being presented in the form that was handed down to me by parents. My father, Jamar Tarr, is a direct descendant of Francesco Peroni. My name is Justin Tarr and I am the great, great grandson of Francesco Peroni. The original founder of Peroni Beer was Francesco Peroni. Francesco Peroni owned an orchard as well at the famous brewery. Francesco had a daughter named Luisa. She angered her father when she met and fell in love with one of her father's orchard laborers name Luigi Delle Torre. Luigi and Luisa moved to the United States and Luisa never saw her father again. At some point in time, Luigi and Luisa had changed their last name to "Tarr". More information on Francesco Peroni to follow.
