The
Armiger (b. 1921, d.
2013) inherited the coat
of arms from his father
Salvatore Carlo (b.
1868, d. 1956), but its
origins go back to an
older time. Such a coat
of arms was painted in
the foyer's vault of the
family palace located in
Atina and described by
Vassalli, Pietro. Storia
di Atina, Sora, 1949.
There is also evidence
that members of the
Tutinelli family made
use of arms in 1850's
(Cirelli, Filippo. Il
Regno delle Due Sicilie
descritto ed illustrato,
Napoli, 1853-60).
The
oldest known ancestor of
the Tutinelli family is
Iacobus, active in Atina
in the years 1501-1530
as notary public and
deputy captain of the
town (Palombo,
Marcantonio. Eccelsiae
Atinatis historia, ms.,
1637).
