Family originally from Fontanile, which then spread to Casale Monferrato, Mantua and Alessandria. He had a knight of Malta, Ferdinand, in 1580, a time when the family was already in a high state. The known progenitor is Gian Matteo, from Fontanile, already died in 1539, father of Ardizzino, senator (1545-62) and captain general of justice in Casale (1562). His son Horace bought the fiefdom of Bruno from the Scarampi and was invested with it with a noble title on March 24, 1588. A decade later, on April 15, 1598, the feud was erected in the county in favor of his son, Ortensio, praetor of Mantua and senator, died without offspring. He was succeeded by his brother Ardizzino (dec. 1617), governor of Trino, and like his brother, senator. Ortensio deserves particular mention of his sons, who died improle in 1642 and invested, on 11 August 1632, in Carentino; and Camilla Ardizzina,
