Joseph Mark Innocent MIGLIORUCCI fl.1726?

Biographical Note

Alston notes that Migliorucci was a London dealer of silver bullion who became an English citizen in 1709, and a 1710 naturalization deed for a Joseph Migliorucci can be found in the British Library. However, these details may actually refer to Count Peter Joseph Migliorucci. In his will Peter bequeathed five pound sterling to Mr Mark Joseph Migliorucci "as dying in charity with him although grosly abused by him". Could Mark Joseph be the Joseph Mark of this entry?

Books

Migliorucci's full name is listed among the subscribers of the 1726 edition of Selden's "Jurisconsulti Opera Omnia Tam Edita quam Inedita". His books were sold by auction in London from 24 January 1716. Migliorucci's books were described by advertisements in the Daily Journal as "a collection of scarce and valuable Books, in most faculties and languages".

Migliorucci's inscription on the title page of Sion College B12.4/P68 at Lambeth Palace Library.

Characteristic Markings

At least one of Migliorucci's books may have been identified in the collections of Sion College Library at Lambeth Palace Library: a copy of Pius II, Pope. Pii. II. Pon. Max. Asiae Europaeque elegantissima descriptio (Paris, 1534), B12.4/P68. Beneath the imprint on the title page is inscribed “C C Bibl: Jos. Migliorucci – f: 1714”. Copies have also been located at Corpus Christi College, Oxford.
