Brancaleoni is the greatest personage in all the Brancaleone lineage. Monaldo's son, Antonio's brother, Abbot of Saint Cristofaro and Francesco, bishop of Camerino, fought against Federico from Montefeltro and for that he had the congratulations of Pope John XIII; he supported Siena in 1339 as war captain. He was Lord of Castel Durante, Sant' Angelo in Vado, Sassocorvaro, Lunano, Monte d'Elici, Peglio, Castel della Pieve and other castles and lands in the territories between the Foglia and the Metauro rivers. He allied with Florence and Perugia in the wars between the Guelfi and the Ghibellines leagues from Marches supported by the bishops of Milan. After a first moment of crisis the fight resolved in favor of the Guelfi thanks to the participation of the Spanish cardinal Albornoz who appointed him vicar of Orvieto in 1359. In  1366 with the siege of Castel Durante and Sant'Angelo in Vado by the cardinal, the relationships between them were interrupted and Brancaleone was imprisoned and brought to Bologna and only in 1375 he could return in his Castel Durante where he regained his good wills and in 1376 he was appointed Papal Chancellor of the Massa Trabaria.
