Count Of Chinchón
Count of Chinchón ( es, Conde de Chinchón) is a title of Spanish nobility. It was initially created on 9 May 1520 by King Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor (Charles I of Spain), who granted the title to Fernando de Cabrera y Bobadilla. History The title, and its dominion over the territory of twenty towns including Chinchón itself, remained in the Cabrera family until 1683. At that point, the Italian aristocratic Savelli family acquired the county. In 1738, José Sforza-Cesarini-Savelli, 11th Count of Chinchón, sold the territory and the title to King Philip V of Spain's son, Philip, 12th Count of Chinchón. He ceded the county on 28 May 1761 to his younger brother, Luis, 13th Count of Chinchón. However, Luis and his successors would lose the rights to the Spanish throne following a battle of succession amongst his brothers ( Charles III of Spain was the victor). The title was recreated on 25 April 1794 by Charles IV of Spain for Luis' son, Luis María de Borbón y Vall ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Diego Fernández De Cabrera Y Bobadilla
Diego is a Spanish masculine given name. The Portuguese equivalent is Diogo. The name also has several patronymic derivations, listed below. The etymology of Diego is disputed, with two major origin hypotheses: ''Tiago'' and ''Didacus''. Etymology ''Tiago'' hypothesis Diego has long been interpreted as variant of ''Tiago'' (Brazilian Portuguese: ''Thiago''), an abbreviation of ''Santiago'', from the older ''Sant Yago'' "Saint Jacob", in English known as Saint James or as ''San-Tiago''. This has been the standard interpretation of the name since at least the 19th century, as it was reported by Robert Southey in 1808 and by Apolinar Rato y Hevia (1891). The suggestion that this identification may be a folk etymology, i.e. that ''Diego'' (and ''Didacus''; see below) may be of another origin and only later identified with ''Jacobo'', is made by Buchholtz (1894), though this possibility is judged as improbable by the author himself. ''Didacus'' hypothesis In the later 20th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
