The Royal Descendants of de Lusignan and the Barony of Baccari and Benwarrad
 

The Barons di Baccari of Malta

The title Barone de Baccari was created in 1508 to Jacques Matteo (sives Eugene Matteo) d’Armenia with the remainder to his descendants in perpetuity. Eugene the illegitimate son of King Jacques II of Cyprus, when his family were exiled, first had went to Naples, Sicily, then settled in Malta marrying a Sicilian heiress Donna Paola Mazzara (a descendant of the Royal House of Aragon of Sicily and Aragon), with issue. Eugene Matteo has also been noted living in Malta and also noted to have been in Venice. Though reports such as family historians dont note the place of death, if in Malta or even perhaps in Venice. His descendants in Malta are quite well noted in Maltese history, especially in the area of Politics, Lawyers, Nobility, and Bishops.

His heir James Antonio (sives Blasio) d'Armenia succeeded to the title o Barone di Baccari and also during his fathers life time created Barone di Benuwarred by the Grand Master of Malta in 1514 to his heirs in legitimate succession of primogenture. His marriage to Dona Isabella di Avello, succeeded the ancient families of Vaccaro into the family. Blasio d'Armenia died 1558.

His son Masi d'Armenia succeeded as the Barone of Baccari and Benuwarred, marrying a Gozitian heiress and fathering a daughter whom also succeeded to the family estates in Malta, married to Don Matteo Ciuma, but dying without heirs. Had sold her shares in 1590 to her elder Aunt, Isabella. Baroness Isabella died as a Nun in 1621 in Valletta and the Barony of Benuwarred dying with her.

Donna Isabella d'Armenia, the aunt of Baroness Isabella Ciuma, had succeeded the lands and titles of the Armenia estates, but didnt take on the pretention of the rights to the Royal House of Cyprus. Her marriage to Don Gio Lanza Inguanez, Heir to the Maltese titles of Ghariexem e Tabia, an ancient Spanish family which has settled in Malta in the 14th century.

Isabella's son Gerolamo succeeded the estates in 1598 and he passed the title of Baccari to his eldest daughter and the estates were succeeded to his son Salvatore and other siblings in 1632. Isabella Inguanez, Baroness of Baccari was the mistress of Marc'Antonio Inguanez, 13th Barone di Djar il-Bniet e Buqana, a very distant cousin, though on a solem promise to her father, was to be married but never happened. Though three illegitimate children succeeded with their rights intact by the Grand Master and also by the half brother of Isabella's children, a personal favorite and also the Lieut Governor of Malta. Isabella died 1707 and her son who was in his senior years succeeded as the 8th Baron of Baccari.

Francesco Inguanez, succeeded as the 8th Baron of Baccari and his marriage to Countess Bridga Inguanez, a distant cousin brought a hereditary title of Count and Countess to all descendants from the Vassallo-Paleologo family.

Succession through the descendants was direct and by nomination from father to son or daughter with the style of Count/Countess, Baron/Baroness of Baccari. Count Publio Inguanez succeeded as the 9th Baron, dying 1742 and succeeded by his eldest daughter Countess Maria, who also inherited the rights of the Barony of Djar il-Bniet. Maria married to Mastro Pedro Tanti and the title of Baccari succeeded by a younger daughter Theresia in 1778.

Theresia Tanti, succeeded as the 11th Baroness of Baccari married to Giuseppe Vella, Captain of the Army in Mosta and had several children. Theresia dying 1789 with succession to her eldest son, Johannes Vella. Barone Johannes Vella had wrote the history and the descendants of the Royal House of Cyprus in Malta. John also in the Army and Captain of the Mosta regiment took collectively with those from other towns in Malta to fight against Napoleon and failed. All rounded up and executed by firing squad in 1799.

Xavier Vella succeeded as the 13th Barone and married with issue, his eldest son Lieut John Vella RMA had married Janet Wallace, the illegitimate daughter of Richard Seymour-Conway, the 4th Marquis of Hertford and brother of Sir Richard Wallace,1st Baronet. Their eldest child, Caverlier Saverio only left a daughter by his mistress, but was not permitted to succeed by Baron Xaverio Vella. The illegitimate daughter had migrated with her mother with the help of the Barone Vella to set them up in Los Angelos Calafornia, USA. Their descendants still continue to this very day.

Barone Xaverio Vella had lived a very long life and also lost most of his legitimate heirs. His eldest daughter, Teresa Vella Sant, was married to Prince Giovanni Maria Said and she succeeded to the title of Baroness of Baccari. Thus her descendants in the senior line carry the title.

The family of d'Armenia is descended from the de Lusignan royal family of the Kingdom of Cyprus.
