Piccardo family

The Piccardo family is an ancient Italian family, from Liguria, of Northern French origin. In the 19th century a family branch relocated from Voltri, in the Kingdom of Sardinia, to Monte San Giovanni Campano, in the Papal States. A branch of the family also settled in the Eastern North America, according to genealogical organisation House of Names.

They were famous entrepreneurs in the paper industry of the region Liguria and in Southern Latium.
