Bonfantini

Though the descendants of messer Bonfantino di messer Cancelliere Adimari (d. 1297) have been assigned to the Bonfantini family with a coat of arms using the same tinctures in a different configuration, they do not seem to have renounced their Adimari ancestors, name, or heraldry. Members of the family appear in the Priorista Mariani and Online Tratte as Bonfantini, though here they are classified as Adimari. For ease of reference, they are linked to the Bonfantini here but should not be seen as kinsmen to the family who had a tomb at Santa Maria Novella with the name and arms of the Bonfantini.
