 San Paolino   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
This title was never recognised by Maltese Law, though the change in the Italian Law in 1926, meant that Maria Angela Attard Montalto was to succeed in the Maltese Barony of Benwarrad, and her cousin to the Sicilian Title of San Paolino.
The descendants of Paolino dei Baroni Attard Montalto, the brother of the 7th Barone di Benwarrad were to succeed as Barons of San Paolino.
Some historian, shows the present Baroness di Benwarrad as the Baroness di San Paolino, this is incorrect under the change to the Italian law of Nobility covering all territories that the then Kingdom of Italy was reigning on in 1926.
