There are actually 2 Sts. Caspar both were 18th/19th century priests from well off Italian families.

St. Gaspar Bertoni was the founder of the Congregation of the Sacred Stigmata of Our Lord Jesus Christ. He was active in several ministeries including caring for the sick during a French invasion and organizing prayer efforts when Pope Pius VII was imprisoned by Napoleon.

Gaspare Bufalo was one of the founders of the Oratory of Saint Mary as well as the Confraternity of the Precious Blood. He was one of the priests exiled from Rome for refusing to swear loyalty to Napoleon.
