Biographical history

The consulate was established in November 1818

The following consuls succeeded each other in the period:

  • Antonio Beramendi, former Spanish consul in Genoa (November 1818 - October 1823)
  • Giuseppe Oneto, (October 1823- June 1839) consul (October 1823) then consul general in January 1834
  • Francesco Oneto (June 1839 - December 1847)

Vice consul in Genoa in the long period 1823 - 1847 is Luigi Oneto.

The vice consuls of the two Rivieras also depend on the Consulate:

  • Giacomo Gemelli, in Portofino (from October 1823)
  • Pantaleo Prasca, in Sestri Levante (from before 1823)
  • Francesco Vissej, Portovenere (from before 1823)
  • Carlo Compareti, in La Spezia (since November 1826)
  • Giovanni Battista Mazzi, in Sarzana (from November 1826).
    Mazza at the closing of the Consulate, in 1847, will become vice-consul of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany in that same post
  • Carlo Boggiano, in Alassio (from before 1823)
  • Giovanni Battista Estarico, in Nice, from August 1829

The consular office in Genova was in Piazza Rovere, 307

Archival history

The papers of the Consulate of the Duchy of Lucca were transferred at the closing of that Consulate, in December 1847, to the General Consulate of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany. From that moment they follow the history of that archive, and were delivered in 1860 to the Governor of the city of Genoa. They therefore become part of the fond of the "Intendenza generale dei Genvova, Archivi amministrativi".
The structure of the archive has changed profoundly. The correspondence was, at an unspecified time, reorganized and partly "mixed" with that of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany; the series of registers are incomplete.
However, traces of consular activities remain imprinted in the letter-copy registers of the sent correspondence (1818-1842) and in the incoming correspondence (1839, 1842-1847).
