Gioachino Ventimiglia Cristoforo Vallon

Gioachino Cristoforo Ventimiglia, heir to the Paterno family of Pettineo relocated to Vallon, Switzerland, a principality in the district of Broye and canton of Fribourg. His family maintains a formal residence in the Swiss countryside around Fribourg, with verified descendants living in Meribel Motarret, France where they operate a ski resort, and in Quebec, Canada. Thirty-two year old Gioachino Cristoforo Ventimiglia Vallon II, runs an import export firm based in London. A large portion of the family adopted the surname Vallon to conceal their heritage, due to a perceived stigma attached to Italian aristocracy and their involvement in the second world war.
