Very ancient and noble family, originally from the territory of Turin, over the centuries it has spread to different regions of Italy, mainly in Veneto. With Sovereign Austrian Resolution November 21, 1816 in Girolamo di Momo the ancient nobility was confirmed, as enjoyed by his family before the year 1796; and Carlo Tomaso with Austrian Sovereign Resolution 16 December 1839, had the title of baron of the Austrian empire with his legitimate descendants of both sexes. The following children of Girolamo Filiberto and Maria dei conti Angeli are registered in the Official List: 1. Carlo, born Venice January 12, 1876; 2. Giovanni Battista, born Venice, 26 October 1878; 3. Cecilia, born Venice, 12 August 1880. The presence of the motto in the documented bibliography of the family confirms the ancestral nobility of the family. In fact, the origin of the motto dates back to around the 14th century and must be sought in those witty sayings that were written on the banners or flags of the knights, displayed on the windows of the inns where they stayed, during the tournaments, and during the tournaments themselves . The motto was a thought expressed in a few words, alluding to a clear or hidden feeling, to a quality, to a historical memory, as a stimulus to courage or honor. It was chosen by the head of the family, by the knight entering the race or given by the sovereign to his loyal man. Family motto: Iustus et propositi tenax.
