- Thomas Pallavicini
Thomas Pallavicini ( _it. Tommaso) was the
margrave of Bodonitsa following a disputed succession in1286 . He was the grandson of Rubino, younger brother of Guy, the first margrave.In 1286, the marchioness Isabella, Guy's daughter, died childless and the margraviate was immediately the subject of disputed claims: that of Thomas and that of her widower
Antoine le Flamenc . Bodonitsa was a vassal of thePrincipality of Achaea , which was held by thebailiff William de la Roche , theduke of Athens , at the time. William, though a relative of thePallavicini , presiding in his capacity as bailiff over the feudal court of Achaea, did not decide for Thomas as successor of Isabella before Thomas seized the castle of Bodonitsa and thus installed himself undisputedly as master of the march. He ruled it quietly for an unknown period of time, perhaps beyond 1300, and transmitted it to his son Albert.ources
