My brother!
it's so good to hear from you! thank you for the connection you provided.
As I'm aware, the Capitani di Giustizia could have been chosen not only from the patrizi from that city, but also picked from abroad, amongst other nobles or Utriusque Iure Doctor.
This fact has been already confirmed by the Archivio di Stato, where no members with that surname and name have been found on the riveli archive of Marsala. and also from an interesting document I found in my hometown, where there was an election for the Giurati, and the nobles where mostly from Messina and Palermo.
my guess is that those 2 Captain of Justice, father and son, came from palermo, where that surname was well established, along with another city in the Messina area.
Let's wait for your friend. I'm sure we will find another breakthrough.
I believe you already have all the information you need, but if you want more details, I'll provide them to you via MP.
yours,
