Tinto Family History

Some of the earliest findings about the Tinto Family, known as “Famiglia Tinto” in Italian, date back to the 12th century when a large landowner named Tinctus was first mentioned in the Chronicon book II by Gregorio Di Catino. The Tinctus surname has linguistic origins in the Latin phrase “de Tinctus,” which can be interpreted as “baptized” in English.

In 1229, the noble Marco Antonio Tinto commanded a ship in the battle of Majorca under the leadership of Giacomo D’Aragona; his crest was light blue and depicted a golden dove about to take flight. Later, in the 15th century, the family resided in Sulmona. The name Juliano dicto Tinto of Sulmona appears in the prayer of the University of Sulmona in Ferrante I of Aragon of 1467. On April 26th, 1489, the notary Giovanni di Pietro de Abbatibus signed a deed of sale on behalf of the Tinto family.

As the family grew over time, so did their roles within government and society. Friar Orazio joined San Lazzaro’s Army, and Guilio wore the Order of Malta’s dress on July 4th, 1604. The family chapel was located in San Francesco Della Scarpa, while one of their palaces was in Porta Maresca. Vincenzo was a family member of the Countess Ciovannella Carafa, second wife of Restaino Cantelmo (Count of Popoli), and the sister of Pope Paolo IV. Several members of the family took part in the government affairs of Sulmona – Giovanni Girolama was mayor in 1605 and was declared by King Philip III of Spain as “Cavalier of San Giacomo della Spada, Major Knight and Superintendent of the Royal Square of Cordoba” (1620).

Giovanni Battista joined the Carmelite’s order, graduating in Philosophy and Theology, and in 1662 became Prior of the Convent of “Carmine Maggiore” in Naples. In 1666, he was named archbishop of Trani in Puglia, and in 1676 he became bishop of Cassano allo Ionio. He died in 1685 and is buried in the Church of Carmine in Naples. After the earthquake of 1706 that destroyed Sulmona, part of the family left Naples and migrated to Rome. From the Naples branch, the magnificent Alessandro (noble of Sulmona) moved to Succivo.
