The Maffio, son of Nicolo of S. Giov.  Grisostomo, and father of Pasqua and Fiordelisa, married probably after his will (1300) and had his four sons:  Almoro of S. Geremia, Maffio, Marco, Nicolo.  Indeed, Cicogna writes (Insc.  Ven. II. p. 390):—­“Non apparisce che Maffeo abbia avuto figliuoli maschi da questo testamento [1300]; ma per altro non e cosa assurda il credere che posteriormente a questo testamento 1300 possa avere avuti figliuoli maschi; ed in effetto le Genealogie gliene danno quatro, cioe Ermolao, Maffio, Marco, Nicolo.  Il Ramusio anzi glien da cinque, senza nominarli, uno de’quali Marco, e una femmina di nome Maria; e Marco Barbaro gliene da sei, cioe Nicolo, Maria, Pietro, Donado, Marco, Franceschino.”—­H.C.]
