    Notes:

    The chronology of the House of Ceva according to Moriondo and others follows.
     
    The theologian Giovanni Battista Moriondo in the second part of his work entitled Monumenta Acquensia compiled two genealogical tables of the Marquises of Ceva. The first under the number 6 in col. 805 has for its progenitor Anselmo, first Marquis of Ceva, extending up to the sixth generation, which includes Oddone III, Bonifacio V, Manuele II, and Francesco II. The second under the number VII col. 809 begins with Guglielmo II, third Marquis of Ceva, who flourished in 1197. He left at his death ten sons named Giorgio I, Bonifacio I, Manuele, Benedetto, Leone, Guglielmo III, Oddone, Michele, Pagano and Raimondo. In the fourth generation of this Guglielmo II there were nineteen marquesses at the same time, whose names are: Bonifacio, Oddone, Manfredo, Matteo, Gabriele, Guglielmo, Giorgio, Francesco, Corrado, Antonio, Enrico, Francesco, Baudino, Giacomo, Enrio, Giacomo, Guglielmo, Oberto, and Giovanni.
     
    Professor Casalis in his historical dictionary gives a list of the first Marquises of Ceva, with the approximate age of their respective domains in the following manner:

    
Anselmo fourth son of Bonifacio of Savona del Vasto around 1142; Guglielmo I, 1178; Guglielmo II; 1197; Giorgio I, 1219; Giorgio II the Dwarf, 1268; Boniface I, 1324; Cristoforo I, 1386; Ottone I, 1411; and Galeazzo I, 1530.
