Hi
Just wondering if anybody knows if there is any of Visconti family still alive?

Knowing the Renaissance princes, I suspect there are lots and lots.
One of the best makes of fountain pens in the world is called Visconti. The Visconti line merged with the Sforza line in Milano and some of their titled descendants may be Sforzas instead. The 1911 Encyclopedia Britannica traces them down to the late 1700s:

I think I sort of remember I have been said there should still be a descendant alive.
But as you may guess I can't recall anything of my source or if it is just my imagination.
