San Felice in Piazza was as a parish church with resident canons but also served as a monastery for communities of Sylvestrine and then Camaldolese monks before becoming a convent of Dominican nuns.

Notes
[a] The Parigi altar is the first on the left or liturgical north wall when turning from the east end toward the door, that is, the seventh altar on the left side from the entrance. Rosselli described this side as along the convent (lungo il convento).
[b] This altar is described in the sources as the last in line along the side of the convent, that is, the church's liturgical north or left wall.
[c] The arms from this memorial are still in the south wall of the church, but the rest of the object seems to have disappeared prior to the middle of the seventeenth century, when Stefano Rosselli reported that it was gone save the coat of arms.
[d] Described by della Foresta in 1610 as the first altar on the right upon entering the church, it was no longer visible to Stefano Rosselli. He surmised, and he is surely correct, that the altar was taken down to make way for the Bogi family altar.
[e] The altar was next to the side door of the church.
[g] Matteo's tomb carries the date 1619. Daniela Lamberini reports that he endowed the altar above it in his testament of 23 March 1622.
[h] Lamberini cites both the Medici Speziali and Grascia books of the dead for Matteo's date of death.
[i] The tomb inscription states that Gianfrancesco installed it while alive in 1533, suggesting an installation date between the new Florentine year on March 25th and his death on April 18th.
[j] It is not clear whether the two coats of arms on the tabernacle, both with rampant lions, though one is emerging from a half wheel of St. Catherine, belong to the same family or two different groups joined in marriage.
