Biography

On 9 May 1603, Marcantonio Genovesi was appointed during the papacy of Pope Clement VIII as Bishop of Montemarano.[1][2] On 11 May 1603, he was consecrated bishop by Mariano Pierbenedetti, Cardinal-Priest of Santi Marcellino e Pietro.[2] On 26 September 1611, he was appointed during the papacy of Pope Paul V as Bishop of Isernia.[1][2] He served as Bishop of Isernia until his death on 7 November 1624.[2]

While bishop, he was the principal co-consecrator of François-Etienne Dulci, Archbishop of Avignon (1609); and Gregorius Pedrocca, Bishop of Acqui (1620).[2]
