 The barony passed from the Caracciolo to the Correale and then to the Milano family (Barons of San Giorgio from 1501 and Marquesses from 1593), who retained the title until 1806, when Napoleon abolished feudalism.In 1864, Victor Emmanuel II changed the name of San Giorgio to San Giorgio Morgeto.Previously it had sometimes been known as San Giorgio di Polistena, because it was part of the Polistena region.
