# Giovanni Vitelleschi, archbishop of Florence and patriarch of Alexandria – cardinal-priest of S. Lorenzo in Lucina, † 2 April 1440
Florence's spies kept a close watch over the mails and soon intercepted letters from the Patriarch to Niccolò Piccinino, who was currently ravaging Tuscany with his warband.
He succeeded his rival Giovanni Vitelleschi, a fellow militaristic cardinal, as bishop of Traù and metropolitan bishop of Florence.
Giovanni Vitelleschi was sent against him, but as he was called to quench a revolt in Romagna, Fortebraccio managed to capture Tivoli.
