All sources need to meet [[WP:CITE|citation guidelines]]; this includes [[WP:V|verifiability]]. In this case, while there ''was'' a [http://www.savevenice.org/site/pp.asp?c=9eIHKWMHF&b=67626 lecture series] given about Venice by the Save Venice NY chapter in 2007, with the guest listed attending, it appears to have been "San Sebastiano: Veronese's Church", not the Barbaro family as the citation notes. Regardless, it's totally unverifiable; the lecture was never published, and no one can check to see that it ever existed. As such, I've removed the material. I would also note that Yale does not offer a PhD in Venetian Studies. --[[User:Haemo|Haemo]] 05:05, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Naming Branches

Venetian culture has a long tradition of using family nicknames to define various branches of a particular patrician family. These nicknames were often based on the neighborhoods where they lived, fuedal holdings or titles, fields of interest as well as many other defining qualities. The Barbaro family also has nicknames that have become common usage within the art historical community:

The most famous branch who owned Palazzo Barbaro and Villa Maser is typically called San Vidal, based on the name of their neighborhood in Venice.

The branch who had an Albergo and lived in Palazzo Dario were often called Albergo as well as Fornace due to them owning an Albergo and being the Barons dell'Albergo and becuase of the location of the Canal della Fornace near their Palazzo.

The third branch is typically called by the nickname San Giorgio because they were the Marquis of San Giorgio (anglicised as St. George).

Both the Albergo and St. George branches have also used ther nicknames as surnames. Some legitimate Barbaro members used Albergo and St. George as their surname.
