From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Giovanni Carron (ca. 1570 – 1649) was the First Duke of Buttigliera Alta. He was conferred the title as well as the fiefdom of the area, on April 25, 1619.[1] His family, the Carrons, originated from Savoy, and established themselves in Turin in 1600, at the Lascaris Palace.

Giovanni had four children:

  • Alessandro (whose only son died without leaving an heir);
  • Nepumoceno;
  • Costanza (married the marquese Massimo di Ceva and died childless);
  • Celso, who was the father of Clementina Carron and Gerardo Carron. Clementina was the last of the Carron line.
