• Notes

  BIOGRAPHY: Thomas I (1239–1296) was the fourth Marquess of Saluzzo from 1244 to his death. He succeeded his father Manfred III. Under the reign of Thomas, Saluzzo blossomed, achieving a greatness which had eluded his ancestors. He crafted a state the borders of which remained unchanged for over two centuries. He extended the march to include Carmagnola. He was often at odds with Asti and he was a prime enemy of Charles of Anjou and his Italian pretensions. During his tenure, he made Saluzzo a free city, giving it a podestà to govern in his name. He defended his castles and roccaforti (strongholds) vigorously and built many new ones in the cities. He married Luisa of Ceva. He was succeeded by his son Manfred IV. Thomas also had a daughter, Alice of Saluzzo, who married Richard Fitzalan, 8th Earl of Arundel. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_I,_Marquess_of_Saluzzo ................................................................................. geni.com Tommaso I del Vasto, IV marchese di Saluzzo Also Known As: "Thomas I Marquis of Saluzzo in Piedmont" Birthdate: 1244 Birthplace: Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy Death: December 23, 1296 (52) Cuneo, Piedmont, Italy Immediate Family: Son of Manfred III, marquess of Saluzzo and Beatrice of Savoy, Queen Consort of Sicily Husband of Leugia Luisa de Ceva di saluzzo Father of Giovanni di Saluzzo; Manfredo IV del Vasto, marchese di Saluzzo; Alice of Saluzzo, Countess of Arundel; Violante Spinola; Filippo di Saluzzo, Governor of Sardinia; and Eleonora di Saluzzo « less Brother of Alasia di Saluzzo, Countess of Lincoln and Agnese de Vesci Half brother of Constanza II de Sicilia, reina consorte de Aragón Occupation: Marquis Of Saluzzo, 1v marchese di saluzzo About Tommaso I, IV marchese di Saluzzo http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_I_of_Saluzzo Thomas I (died 1296) was the fourth margrave of Saluzzo from 1244 to his death.
