The Galluppi family is an Italian noble family originally from Tropea and comprising various branches, one of which settled in France in the fourteenth century, another in Sicily around the end of the sixteenth. One of the members of the family named Cristoforo married in 1340 Donna Giacoma Ruffo, baroness of Altavilla, obtaining as a dowry half of the baronial fiefdom of Altavilla.[1][2]
