King Ferrante of Naples and Isabella De Clermont
Ferrante or Ferdinand was quite a guy. Known to be very ruthless he kept his enemies close by stuffing them and sitting them around a banquet table, as if at the last supper.

My Italian last name is: D’Auria as it’s the ancient Italian noble Coat of the Arms of the crest of D’Auria Family originally in Naples, Italy and Campania province in Italy for a long time.

In fact I am the Second-Generation Italian American citizen in my D’Auria Family on American soil. Now I have my B.A, in double majors of Biology and Chemistry from Gallaudet University with Class of 1981. Then I am a retiree residing in Henrietta, New York outside the city of Rochester, New York, USA. Well I know abut Auria as the famous extremely rich Italian noblewoman originated in Sardinia as the ancient Italian last name was: De Auriae meaning The Sons Of Auria in a fact. It happened in 990 A.D. (10 th Century A.D.) in Sardinia so historically.
