FONTANA: Origins and Locations of the Surname in Trentino

WEDNESDAY 9 APRIL 2025


Happy spring, Friend!


Lynn Serafinn from Trentino Genealogy here. It's been a few months since you've last heard from me, as I've been busy working on a lot of family trees for clients since the New Year. But over the past two weeks, I finally had a chance to sit down and do some more writing, and I am happy to share my latest SURNAME STUDY with you today:

The FONTAN Families of Trentino

You can READ the full article at this link:


If you like this article and want to keep it, you can purchase the 25-PAGE PDF eBook for $3.50 USD on the website. That way you can print it out and share it with family over the holidays.

In this article, I discuss:

  • Linguistic Origins of the Surname Fontana

  • Fontana in Val Rendena

  • Fontana in the Northeast (Fassa, Fiemme, and Primiero)

  • Fontana in Val di Cembra

  • The Ancient Fontana of Saone (Giudicarie Interiore)

  • Fontana in Giudicarie Esteriore

  • Fontana of Lizzana, Rovereto and Pomarolo (Vallagarina)

  • Fontana in Alto Garda and Valle di Ledro

  • Fontana in Valsugana and Tesino

  • Fontana of Revò (Val di Non)

  • Fontana in Other Parts of Val di Non

  • Fontana in Val d’Adige

  • Fontana, Fontana, Everywhere!

  • An Interesting Bit of Trivia

I hope you enjoy my first eBook of 2025. If you do, please do leave a comment on the website.


Wishing you a wonderful spring.


Warm wishes,
