The Armiger (b. 1921) inherited
the coat of arms from his father Salvatore Carlo (b. 1868, d. 1956), but its
origins go back to an older time. Such a coat of arms was painted in the foyer's
vault of the family palace located in Atina (cfr. Vassalli, Pietro. Storia di
Atina, Sora, 1949). There is also evidence that members of the Tutinelli family
made use of arms in 1850's (Cirelli, Filippo. Il Regno delle Due Sicilie
descritto ed illustrato, Napoli, 1853-60).
The oldest known ancestor of the Tutinelli family is Iacobus, active in Atina in
the years 1501-1513 as notary public and deputy captain of the town (Palombo,
Marcantonio. Eccelsiae Atinatis historia, ms., 1637.
