CABRINI

Typical of the area that includes Milan, Bergamo, Brescia, Crema and Lodi and the provinces of Mantua, Reggio, Parma and Piacenza, it should derive from the Latin personal Cabrius, probably in turn derived from the Celtic Cabrach. There are traces of this surname since 1300, in 1347 an intelligent Roman populace became a notary is Nicola di Rienzo Cabrini, commonly called Cola di Rienzo, also famous because he organized the legation sent to Avignon to recall Pope Clement VI, towards the end of the same century in Verdello (BG) we find deeds drawn up by Petrus de Cabrinis de Verdello notarius, in the first half of the 1400s at Taleggio (BG) we find another Cabrini notary: "... Liber seu fragmentum instrumentorum d. Cabrini qd Viviani olim d . Costanzii alias q alterius Viviani qd Boni olim born d. , whose works are signed CAF (Cabrini Fecerunt), in 1510, in Alfianello (BS) was born Francesco Cabrini, of noble family, who became a priest, became spiritual director of the fathers of Peace. The most famous representative of the family was without a doubt the nun Francesca Saverio Cabrini, born in 1850 in Sant'Angelo Lodigiano, made a saint canonized in 1946 by Pius XII °
