A thousand years, one estuary
Convergence tree
Like rivers, the noble houses converge into a single lineage
From the Conti Guidi of 887, four great houses — Guerri, dall’Oro, Gallone, Pignatelli — flow through the centuries and unite, marriage after marriage, until they form a single course: the Guerri dall’Oro Gallone. Each confluence has its date and its keystone couple.
The four keystone dates
Four marriages, spread over more than a thousand years, brought together into a single lineage the houses that today make up the name Guerri dall’Oro Gallone.

The mouth: Guerri dall’Oro Gallone
Aldo Guerri dall’Oro marries Simonetta della Posta, who carries the Gallone heritage: thus the “Guerri dall’Oro Gallone” are born, the course that reaches Simon (12th Prince of Tricase) and his son Léon (13th, b. 2018).
