A
Coat of Arms is the Family's ensign handed down from father to
son, a symbol of the stock's continuity. It was placed on homes,
tombs, armour and carved on seals. Later the heraldists gathered
these emblems in codes and collections preserved in Libraries
and Archives.
We have collected and classified a large
part of this material, and are continuing to retreive and and
bringing up to date the Coats of Arms of Italian families. We
tackle any study in this particular line, and each crest we supply
a fine reproduction in colour, hand-painted by skilled artists
on parchment paper measuring 35x50 cms. The source from which
the Crest was obtained is clearly stated at the foot of the sketch,
authenticated by our Director's signature and the Institute's
Seal. At the foot of the Crest is inserted in Gothic characters
a short account of the family's historical background. |

The
study of the history of Italian families and the compilation
of their relative historical-heraldic records has been our business
for over a hundred years. The research for the origins of families,
their remote past, the places they came from are essential steps
in the compilation of the stock's history. The Book we compile
contains photostat copies of all the information gathered from
original sources. It offers therefore a complete picture of events
and of cospicuous members of the family. The research undertaken
also brings to light the titles of Nobility the family enjoyed
throughout the centuries by means of documented references to
those which, even if no longer used because of the Alternate
vicissitudes suffred by the family, could now be claimed and
resumed by the present descendants. The Book, 25x35 cms. in size,
bears on the front page a hand-painted reproduction of the Crest
finely executed in colour. The classic style binding completes
in a most elegant manner this interesting and important work. |

The
Genealogical Family Tree reconstitutes the direct ancestry of
the applicant, tracing back through the various generations the
family's remotest progenitor that can be documented with no discontinuity
by a search for and collection of all birth, marriage and death
certificates that can be found in the Archives of State Registries,
in those of the Parishes or Communal and State Archives, and
relating to the past members of the family. These researches
may yield interesting information often unknown to the present
generations, as famous relationships, privileges enjoyed by its
members, titles of Nobility abandoned by the ancestors for various
reasons. However, an enterprise of this kind can be undertaken
for the satisfaction of knowing one's ancestors even if they
were not of illustrious lineage. Each document in official form
or in photocopy, presented, commented upon and registered is
the guarantee of a search made with the utmost seriousness having
legal, juridical international value. |
