Corrado Pontalti vendette la sua parte di signoria al Comune di Genova, 1279. Guglielmo Pontalti capitano di galera contro i Pisani, 1291; e due anni avanti fabbricò la prima campana che fu posta sulla Torre di Palazzo. Paolo Pontalti fu ambasciatore al Papa, nel 1340; al re di Francia 1342. Leonardo, figlio di detto Paolo, console di Caffa, 1357; ambasciatore al re d'Aragona, 1359; comandante delle galee genovesi in servigio dell'imperatore di Costantinopoli, 1362, dal quale riceve in dono la celebre Imagine Edessena (S. Sudario); ambasciatore a Torino, per la pace con Venezia, conclusa a mediazione del Conte Verde, 1381; eletto doge 1383, muore in dignità l'anno appresso, legando la detta Immagine alla chiesa di S.
