Marquis of San Sperate is a title granted in 1749 by Charles Emmanuel III of Savoy, king of Sardinia, to Sardinian judge and nobleman Joseph Cadello (in Italian: Giuseppe Cadello). It has passed afterwards to the house Ripoll and eventually to Sanjusts.
The grant edit
The title was conferred over the village of San Sperate, bought by the judge Joseph Cadello from the treasury in 1742.[1]
The inheritance edit
The title passed over to the grantee's descent up to date, with some indirect passages and three female inheritances.
