Giovanni Antonio de Benzoni

Everything this archive holds under this name, gathered from every page of the site.

No family is drawn for this name, and no record stands behind it. This archive has not placed it in a household and holds no indexed entry for it — the name reached this project through a chart, a narrative source or the family tree, and everything it does hold is below. The Register is where a record would appear if one turned up.
Identity here is by name, not by resolved individual. Where two people of one name appear in this archive they share this page, and it is for the reader to keep them apart — the surrounding text usually makes it obvious. Nothing here is new evidence; it is the same evidence, brought together.

The Spine

…ge belonged to the bishops of Pićan — Pedena — until defeudalisation made it a municipality. So the diocese that runs through this whole page runs through the land too. It is the Provost and Vicar of Pedena Cathedral who baptises the count's son at Gallignana in 1720; it is the bishop of Pedena whose vicar general was Giovanni Antonio de Benzoni of Fiume; and from 1740 it is the bishop of Pedena who is Gologorica's landlord. , tension: One tension to record rather than smooth over. The Zagreb article says the family «moved from Friuli in Italy in the middle of the 17th century», and its English abstract repeats it. But the Rijeka fond it cites for the family's own papers is catalogued «Obitelj Def…

…nt, for at least seventy-five years after Valentino's death, by people who had bought his land. , tomb: And the tomb is confirmed from the same volume. In his account of the collegiate church, Kobler lists the burials that still had their slabs: after the chapter's own vault and the tomb of Bishop Giovanni Antonio de Benzoni, the family tombs of the Stemberg, Velens, Saurich, Troyer, Lumaga and the rest, and then the individual stones — «Giorgio Marchesetti, Valentino Defranceschi, Francesco Calucci…». He adds that almost all of them are eighteenth-century, because the great restoration of 1716–1726 took up the slabs of the extinct families. Valentino's was still in the floor when Kobler walked ov…

…t the vicar general of Pedena in 1720 was Giovanni Antonio Benzoni, noble nephew of Bishop Marotti, who went on to become Bishop of Pedena in 1730. It is half right, and the half that is wrong is the half that sounds most like a fact. , kobler: Kobler settles it, in his own dictionary of the families of Fiume: «Giovanni Antonio de Benzoni, nato in Fiume nel 1687, figlio dei coniugi Felice de Benzoni ed Orsola Marotti, nel 1717 canonico di Fiume, poi vicario generale del vescovo di Pedena, fu fatto vescovo di Segna e Modrussa nel 1730, e li 3 decembre 1745 morì in Fiume, ove fu sepolto nel Duomo. Essendo vescovo recavasi talvolta scalzo in parecchi luoghi a predicare.» , en: Giovanni Antonio de Benzoni, b…

As bishop he would sometimes go barefoot to various places to preach. , rows: lab: What the summary got right ,…

A dossier is every mention of a name anywhere in this archive's data, gathered automatically and linked back to the page it appears on, with what the archive knows about the person set out at the top. **Identity here is by NAME, not by resolved individual**: where two people share a name they share a dossier, and the archive says so rather than guessing. Rebuilt from the roster, so every person the archive can name has a page — including the ones read straight off a register that no index anywhere contains.
