H. SAMMARTINO.  Noteworthy among the successful merchants of Youngstown is H. Sammartino, a jeweler, making a specialty of dealing in diamonds and other precious stones.  A native of Italy, he was born in 1878 in Agnone, Province of Campobasso, where he spent the earlier years of his life.  As a boy and youth he had the advantages of a technical education, and early learned the trade of a silversmith and watchmaker.      Immigrating to the United States, Mr. Sammartino located in Youngstown, and for nine years thereafter carried on business as a peddler, traveling throughout the Mahoning Valley.  He sold solid gold jewelry, and was so honest and upright in his dealings with all that the people learned to trust him, placing perfect confidence in his word.  Thus fortified, Mr. Sammartino opened a jewelry store at 382 East Federal Street, and in the sale of diamonds, watches and jewelry met with success.  Needing more commodious quarters for his growing trade, he moved to his present place of business, 365 East Federal Street, where he has an extensive and lucrative trade, and in addition is interested in various other financial enterprises.      Mr. Sammartino married after coming to Ohio Miss Martha Fernando, who belongs to an old and prominent Italian family, her mother having been a child of six years when brought by her parents to the United States.  Politically Mr. Sammartino is a republican, and religiously he belongs to the Mount Carmel Catholic Church.  He is likewise a member of Figh D Italia.
