There
is no grant of arms in
existence however, the
authenticity and
antiquity of the coat of
arms are certified by
court antiquarian
appraisals on different
items, including an
ancient seal still in
the family’s possession.
The
surname means “those
from Avesa”, a village
belonging to the
municipality of Verona,
Italy. The family is an
ancient Burgher family
residing in the
outskirts of Verona,
Italy, probably since
the middle age. The arms
are believed to have
been assumed no later
than the XVII century.
The
motto is a pun, meaning
“Welcome and stay safe”
but also “Stay true to
the Avesani family”.
At
Antonio’s death, his son
Domenico (born 9 April
1797) inherited and used
the arms; at Domenico’s
death, the arms were
inherited and used by
his daughter Angela
(born 5 April 1824) and
her brother Natale (born
26 September 1821). The
arms have been
registered at the
request of Daniele
Scarpi, whose
great-great-grandfather,
a resident of San
Michele, 37132 VR,
Italy, married
Angela.
