The history of the last name Trione

The surname Trione has its roots in the Italian language and is believed to have originated in the region of Piedmont, in northwestern Italy, during the medieval period. The name is derived from the Latin word "trio," which means "three" or "threefold," suggesting a possible connection to a location or family that had some significance related to the number three.

One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Trione can be found in historical documents from the city of Turin, the capital of Piedmont, dating back to the 13th century. These documents mention individuals bearing the name Trione, indicating that the surname was already in use during this time.

In the 15th century, a notable figure named Giovanni Trione (c. 1420-1490) was a prominent merchant and banker in the city of Asti, located in the province of Piedmont. He played a significant role in the economic and political affairs of the region, and his name is mentioned in various records and chronicles of that era.

During the Renaissance period, the surname Trione was also associated with several artists and intellectuals. One such individual was Girolamo Trione (c. 1520-1590), a renowned painter and fresco artist who worked in the city of Turin and neighboring areas, contributing to the artistic legacy of the region.

In the 17th century, the name Trione appeared in records related to the Catholic Church. Father Antonio Trione (1635-1702) was a respected priest and theologian who served in the Diocese of Vercelli, another city in Piedmont. He is known for his written works on religious matters and his contributions to the local community.

Another notable figure bearing the surname Trione was Carlo Trione (1780-1854), a military officer who fought in the Napoleonic Wars. He rose through the ranks and became a general in the Italian Army, serving with distinction during the campaigns of the early 19th century.

Throughout its history, the surname Trione has maintained a strong presence in the Piedmont region of Italy, particularly in the cities of Turin, Asti, and Vercelli.
