What were Michelangelo's grandparents called?

Answer 1

Paternal grandfather, Leonardo Buonarotti; paternal grandmother Alessandra di Branaccio Brunacci; maternal grandfather Neri di Miniato del Sera; maternal grandmother Maria Bonda Rucellai. The wealthy Rucellai family was related by marriage to the Medici family.

Answer 2

Ok... so the father of Michelangelo is Lodovico Buonarroti. His mother's name was Francesca di Neri di Miniato del Sera.... The book I got it from "The World of Michelangelo" said those were the names and that his father was rather proud as in noblity and that his mother was a pushover who did his father's wishes. His mother died when he was six, but Michelangelo lived with his wet-nurse and her husband and never really was close to his family. Michelangleo didn't even care when his father remarried. The step-mother's name is never mentioned.

I know it's more than you asked for, but I have to admit-- doing a project on Michelangleo comes in handy!
