Parenthetically, the suname "Casagrande," mentioned in a few examples above, means literally "large house" and is an apt description of the massive Ospedale di Pammatone in Genoa (1766-1942), a location where ever enlarging hospital structures were established between about 1422 and 1942 when the Pammatone was destroyed during the Second World War. It is where, for one example of thousands upon thousands, in about 1761 or 1762 a man named Francesco della Casa Grande was abandoned at the ruota of the ospedale and cared for as an abandoned infant before being placed in the municipality of Lumarzo, 27 km (17 mi.) to the east by north east of Genoa, where he would live until 1849 when he died there at 87 years of age. (Sign in and see his Lumarzo death certificate at [https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1971-26956-14185-2?cc=1928859&wc=9MC2-NQD:1060289403,1060289404 https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.3.1/TH-1971-26956-14185-2].) Numerous images of the hospital, including paintings and photographs, both before and after its destruction, can easily be found by performing an image search on the Internet. | Parenthetically, the suname "Casagrande," mentioned in a few examples above, means literally "large house" and is an apt description of the massive Ospedale di Pammatone in Genoa (1766-1942), a location where ever enlarging hospital structures were established between about 1422 and 1942 when the Pammatone was destroyed during the Second World War.

''• Because Mr. Rossoni identifies Aprile, Aprili, D'Aprile, Febbraio, Febbraro, and Settembre (April, February, and September) as months whose names have been used as surnames for infants abandoned during those months, it may well be that the names of other months were similarly used.'' | |||
