The history of the last name Sarenana

The surname "SARENANA" originates from the small village of Sarenano, nestled in the picturesque hills of northern Italy, near the city of Parma. This name dates back to the 11th century, when the village was first established by a group of farmers who had migrated from the nearby town of Salsomaggiore.

The village of Sarenano was first mentioned in a historical document from 1096, which described the transfer of land ownership from the Countess of Parma to a local nobleman. This document included the names of several residents of the village, some of whom bore the surname "Sarenana," which was likely derived from the village's name.

One of the earliest recorded individuals with the surname "Sarenana" was Pietro Sarenana, who was born in Sarenano in 1213. He was a renowned blacksmith and his name appeared in several contracts and documents from the region, detailing his work on various construction projects in the nearby cities of Parma and Reggio Emilia.

In the 14th century, the name "Sarenana" appears in the archives of the Duchy of Parma, where a certain Giovanni Sarenana is listed as a landowner and member of the local council. This suggests that the family had gained some prominence and influence in the region by that time.

Another notable figure was Elisabetta Sarenana, born in 1487, who was a renowned herbalist and midwife. She was widely respected for her knowledge of medicinal plants and her skill in assisting with difficult childbirths. Her name appears in several local records and histories from the late 15th and early 16th centuries.

During the Renaissance period, the name "Sarenana" was also associated with the arts. Antonio Sarenana, born in 1562, was a celebrated painter who worked in the Mannerist style. His works can still be found in several churches and palaces throughout the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy.

Over the centuries, as families migrated from the village of Sarenano to other parts of Italy and eventually to other countries around the world, the surname "Sarenana" spread and diversified. However, its roots can be traced back to this small village in northern Italy, where it first emerged as a distinct family name many centuries ago.
