As already stated (Message # 1272), his mother – Concetta Frangipane - was
definitely of noble origin. A member of the Frangipane/Frangipani family moved
from Spain to Sicily in 1130, which does not prove that this family was of
Spanish origin, contrary to what is assumed at
http://www.treccani.it/enciclopedia/giulio-cesare-andrea-evola_(Dizionario-Biogr\
afico)/. Indeed, the Frangipane/Frangipani, who claimed descent from the
plebeian gens Anicia, were originally from Rome.
