Princes Torlonia

[edit]

A better, less pretentious title would be Princes Torlonia.--Wetman (talk) 11:20, 27 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Except that Prince Torlonia is only descended from the House of Torlonia in the female-line; he is actually a Borghese. The two branches of the male-line House of Torlonia are not known as Princes Torlonia (in spite of the fact that the head of one line is Prince of Civitella-Cesi). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.242.18.194 (talk) 22:25, 10 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
