Were the Pazzi conspiracy family of Florence Jewish?
It is often assumed that the Medici of Florence were Jewish because they made a great fortune as money-lenders, which is widely viewed (rightly and wrongly) as a Jewish trade. They were in fact Catholic by faith and tradition and produced two Popes (Leo X and Clement VII) and many cardinals. HOWEVER, a distinguished Jewish Rabbi and medical doctor, Jachiel da Pesaro, converted to Catholicism in 1583--under the sponsorship of Cardinal Ferdinando dei Medici, later Grand Duke Ferdinando I. Upon baptism, Jachiel took the name of Vitale dei Medici and was effectively "adopted" by Ferdinando. VItale's sons Alessandro and Antonio dei Medici inherited the family name along with the Catholic faith and enjoyed great wealth and influence in Florence. IN SUMMARY: The Medici of Florence were definitely not Jewish but there were several quasi-Medici (with no blood tie) who were formerly Jewish.
