Discussione:Francesco Feroni

Hello Gherardus. I just wanted to let you know more on Ferroni and I like to make a lemma on the dutch Wikipedia. May be I could use your help. It is possible to make an outline in English? I added him already to the lemma nl:Asiento Ferroni was married to Prudentia Tensini from Antwerp. They lived on Keizersgracht and on Rokin. He probably had four children.[1] The name of the youngest is very interesting. He was named after a scientist Franciscus Sylvius.

Ferroni was a grainmerchant for the Camera Apostolica and shareholder of the Dutch West India Company. In December 1667 he accomodated Cosimo III for a few weeks on his trip to the Netherlands. See en:Lorenzo Magalotti or en:Cosimo III de' Medici. Ferroni left Amsterdam in the end 1672, the year of disaster, as it was called. His wife was ill, and wanted her daughters to get married.

Hello Gherardus, I am not so sure anymore if Prudenzia Tensini is from Antwerp, rather Hamburg, but her father lived in Antwerp, Cologn, and Archangelsk. They married on 31 March 1650. Her family is from Crema [2] . 77.248.15.242 (msg) 13:14, 25 mar 2010 (CET)
