Many of these sources are relatively old and outdated studies (including the one by Ludovico Nesbitt, which is a reprint of a 1920s book, https://opac.sbn.it/risultati-ricerca-avanzata/-/opac-adv/index/5/ITICCUIEI0379202?fieldvalue%5B1%5D=ludovico+nesbitt&fieldaccess%5B1%5D=Keywords%3A1016&fieldstruct%5B1%5D=ricerca.parole_tutte%3A4%3D6&struct%3A1001=ricerca.parole_almeno_una%3A%40or%40). I will add, however, the one by Veratti and the one by Zaghi, which I saw it's often mentioned by Milanini Kemeny.
As regards her, she's sometimes mentioned with an accent and sometimes without (see here in the main Italian catalogue https://opac.sbn.it/risultati-ricerca-avanzata/-/opac-adv/index/1/ITICCUPUV0184343?fieldvalue%5B1%5D=La+Societ%C3%A0+d%27Esplorazione+Commerciale+in+Africa+e+la+politica+coloniale+%281879-1914%29&fieldaccess%5B1%5D=Keywords%3A1016&fieldstruct%5B1%5D=ricerca.parole_tutte%3A4%3D6&struct%3A1001=ricerca.parole_almeno_una%3A%40or%40). In my copy, I've seen that it's written with an accent on the second vowel (Kemény) (I can upload an image, if necessary): I'll correct it here and in the Italian version.

I provided a reference for the fact that Bianchi worked in a Milanese company as an accountant (it's mentioned also in Milanini Kemény and De Leone, but Del Boca indicates even the name of the company) Armsbeadscloth (talk) 14:14, 27 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
