Rosselli indexed four tombs in two Oltrarno churches under the name "Lapi in S. Spirito," but inconsistencies among them suggest that they were at least two, if not four, distinct groups.

This group’s tomb had a coat of arms in Santo Spirito showing a single mount with three peaks. However, its Latin inscription makes clear that Lapi is the genitive of Lapus, the tomb owner’s avonym (grandfather’s name), and not a surname.

Notes

  • [a] Indexed together by Rosselli. Both had coats of arms, though only one was drawn by Rosselli. The family with the lost arms used Lapi as a surname. The family with known arms used Lapo as an avonym (grandfather’s name).
  • [b] Indexed together by Rosselli. One family used Lapi as a surname, while the other used Lapo as an avonym (grandfather's name) and had a coat of arms.
  • [c] Indexed together by Rosselli as "Lapi in S. Spirito," but neither family used Lapi as a surname. Both had Lapo as an avonym (grandfather’s name). The tomb in San Jacopo sopr'Arno had Tommaso as a patronym (father's name) and carried no arms. The tomb in Santo Spirito had Maso as a patronym and had arms.
