Ambrogio Capello was a notary and citizen of Genoa who was active during the middle of the fifteenth century. He was the son of the notary Antonio Capello. In 1476 he is recorded as the owner of a ship, which in 1480 was placed in paid service, presumably for the Genoese authorities. In 1482 he served as a partitore, an administrative office concerned with the allocation or distribution of public responsibilities or assessments. The following year, 1483, he was elected one of the twelve anziani. He was married to Battestina, daughter of the notary Simone Multedo.
