The history of the last name Susin

The surname SUSIN has its origins in Italy, dating back to the medieval period. The name is derived from the Latin word "susinus," which means "belonging to the pig." This suggests that the earliest bearers of this surname may have been involved in the raising or trading of pigs.

In the 13th century, the name SUSIN appeared in various historical records, including the Codice Diplomatico Veronese, a collection of documents from the city of Verona. One such record mentions a certain Petrus Susinus, who was a landowner in the region.

During the Renaissance period, the SUSIN name gained prominence in the city of Venice. One notable figure was Francesco Susin (1590-1653), a Venetian painter known for his religious works and portraits. He was commissioned by several churches and noble families in Venice.

In the late 16th century, the SUSIN family established itself in the town of Asolo, near Treviso. One of the earliest recorded members was Giovanni Battista Susin (1550-1610), a prominent lawyer and judge who served in the Venetian Republic.

Another notable bearer of the SUSIN name was Stefano Susin (1675-1742), a Venetian architect and engineer. He was responsible for the design and construction of several churches, palaces, and public buildings in Venice and the surrounding areas.

In the 19th century, the SUSIN family expanded beyond Italy. One member, Antonio Susin (1818-1892), immigrated to Argentina and became a successful businessman and landowner in the province of Córdoba. His descendants continued to use the SUSIN surname in that region.

Throughout its history, the SUSIN name has been associated with various professions, including agriculture, law, art, architecture, and commerce. While the name originated in Italy, it has since spread to other parts of the world due to emigration and cultural exchange.
