This is a very interesting piece of your family history! I like history of all types, but I think learning about a person's family history is one of the most interesting.
Question: Your grandfather married somebody random in Italy, and then married in Venezuela. I am assuming he lost contact with his first wife after stowing away on the ship, or did he ever have to go through some kind of divorce process?
By the way, I don't blame him for wanting to get out of Italy and not fighting in that brutal war. My parents came out of war torn Europe and it wasn't a pretty sight.
