• So this COA that is located in Switzerland has a red diagonal band & red stars? What is the backing color field? Or is it faded & does not show the actual colors?  Just curious. Also, the most recent COA that says Scotti under it with the fleur-de-lys on top of helmet. If I may ask, what is the source?

I have found a map that shows Ponte Tresa and Calano are both in Switzerland near the Italian border. Both are in the canton of Lugano, Ticino, Switzerland.  This area is covered by the Diocese of Milan so I will try to contact the churches hopefully for more information.  There are many churches in Ponte Tresa, and I don't know which one. These old records may be in either Italian or Latin. I will keep you updated on any progress I have.  Richard

This is interesting, I have never come across this one before. What is the source?

This is almost the exact coat of arms Renzo Scotti sent me in 1980 that was over his grandmother's porch except it had a fleur de lie on top only. 2- 6 [pointed stars but colors vary somewhat, but who knows?  Richard Scotti

As my time allows, I have many names to try and associate with the Scotti family tree charts from Switzerland & Italy, but I now believe my side is more from Switzerland with a beginning in Italy.  I will try to associate these names with the time frame of birth, and death dates in various areas. This will take some time and study to figure out.  Information from various cities in both Switzerland and Italy mainly deals with the upper class that most are not associated with.  The link between the name and times must be fairly accurate so old family tree charts from years ago may be of great help.  The coat of arms of Scotti is more Italian than Swiss.  I will also need to find a map showing the exact border of Italy and Switzerland in the time frame of the named cities located.  Lots to do..

Hope this helps in some way, shape or form.

The first COA I posted (at bottom) says its from Genoa & attributes to it to Scotti/Scotto. There is another COA I posted a while back also from the Blasonario Subalpino. That COA also attributed to the Scotti/Scotto, but from Cuneo. That COA has the yellow Fleur de Lis present.

Wish I could make out the writing on this.

consignors of Casaleggio Boiro
(The Scotti of the Pallavicino hotel. Di Ricaldone assigns this weapon to the consignors of Casaleggio Boiro)

For whatever it may be worth? This is from Blasonario Subalpino.
