Gualterio Family
The House of Gualterio (in the past, also Gualtieri) is an Italian aristocratic family, with its first documented roots in the 12th century and links to France and the Stuarts. The Gualterio family has spawned various aristocratic titles including the extant Marquis of Corgnolo (1723) and, under the Jacobite peerage, Earl of Dundee (1705). The present head and heir to the titles is Luigi Gualterio (b. 1955). History The Gualterio family bore the surname Gualterini or Gualcherini when Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor, around 975, appointed it among the hundred consul families for the government of Orvieto. In addition to the noble status in Orvieto (1067), where many members of the family held roles such as gonfaloniere, governatore and Signore Sette, the family was co-opted in the nobility of Viterbo (1566), Rome (1518), Fabriano (1686), Todi (1689), Camerino (1691), Loreto (1694) and San Marino (1704).

Jus Patronatus
The right of patronage (in Latin ''jus patronatus'' or ''ius patronatus'') in Roman Catholic canon law is a set of rights and obligations of someone, known as the patron in connection with a gift of land (benefice). It is a grant made by the church out of gratitude towards a benefactor. Its counterpart in English law and in the Church of England is called an advowson. The right of patronage is designated in papal letters as ''"ius spirituali annexum"'' and is therefore subject to ecclesiastical legislation and jurisdiction as well as civil laws relating to the ownership of property. Background In the Eastern Catholic Churches, the founder of a church was permitted to nominate an administrator for the temporal goods and indicate to the bishop a cleric suitable for appointment. In the Latin Church, the Synod of Orange in 441 granted a right of "presentation" to a bishop who had built a church in another diocese and the Synod of Toledo in 655 gave a layman this privilege for ea ...

He was Prince of Wales from July 1688 until, just months after his birth, his Catholic father was deposed and exiled in the Glorious Revolution of 1688.
