Albergoni family

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

[1] 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.

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.
