According to geneall.net, Leonardo da Vinci's parents were Ser Piero da Vinci and Caterina (no last name listed-no ancestry listed for her outside of her child with da Vinci). It does not appear that they were married. Ser Piero da Vinci is listed as having 4 wives (Albiera, Francesca, Margherita, and Lucrezia-no mention of Caterina as a wife).

Leonardo da Vinci was born in 1452.

Ser Piero da Vinci lived from 1427 to 1504. He was a notary in Florence.

There are no birth or death dates for Leonardo's mother. She later married a man from Vinci. @#$%

He was a tall and handsome man

He was very strong. It is said that he was able to bend a horseshoe using just one hand!

He became a vegetarian, which is absolutely unheard of during the Renaissance period. No one was a vegetarian back then.

He would go to the market and buy the birds that the sellers would have in a cage and release them. Leonardo was fascinated by birds and fascinated in learning how to fly.

He designed several flying machines: a hand glider, one that kind of looks like a helicopter and one that resembles a pterodactyl!

He was left handed and wrote backwards. You'd need a mirror to be able to read it.

He performed autopsies in bodies because he was very curious about the human body and he used his knowledge of the body to be a better painter. In fact, Leonardo's drawings in anatomy were used for a long time by doctors because it was the ONLY accurate and detailed drawings of the human body until much much later.

Leonardo and Michelangelo did no get along. It was probably because they were both after the same art commissions. They were competitors. Leonardo was more neutral toward Michelangelo. Michelangelo on the other hand was more vocal about his dislike of Leonardo.
