Villa Albergoni

The Albergoni (or Albrigoni/Albergone) family was an Italian noble family, which originated in Lombardy.[1]

Their coat of arms was blue in the shield, featuring a golden lion and three stars above.[1]

History

[edit]

The first known member of this family was Ortensio (or Guazzo/Guazzone) Albergoni[2] and he is mentioned in 1189.

The family was first ennobled in 1519 in connection with Giovan Giacomo Albergoni being admitted to the General Consiglio in Crema.

Zurla Albergoni

[edit]

A short lived cadet branch of the family was created when Cristoforo Zurla married an Albergoni heiress,[3] took his wife's surname thus creating the Zurla Albergoni branch. The couples son, Marc’Antonio Maria Zurla Albergoni, died childless in 1757.
