Sentence translation needed

[scraig32]

Could anyone tell me what the word "trisavolo" means in the following sentence? Thank you in advance!!!


Sposò Giovanna Falco e da questo matrimonio nacquero undici figli, tra cui Mario De Stefani, il suo trisavolo.

[AngelaGrace56]

trisavolo - great great grandfather

This is what I understand, but not sure how it makes sense, without seeing the complete document:

"Married Giovanna Falco, and from this matrriage were born eleven children, among which was Mario De Stefani, his great great grandfather."
