Notes

  • [a] The commissioner or commissioners of the altar remain unknown, though the family's coat of arms displayed a rampant gold lion on a blue shield. Two family weddings were referenced by two impaled coats of arms. One, with a blue cross on a silver shield resembles that of the Ridolfi di Ponte.
  • [b] passed through inheritance at extinction of Ciai
  • [c] Neri, son of Ridolfo, was among the first generations of the Ridolfi di Ponte family that had taken its name from his father. Ridolfo was the son of Bonsignore, so this may be the first usage of the Ridolfi surname, or, as the index to the Rosselli copy suggests, this is a different family
