Luca Spinola was born around 1628, son of Luciano of the noble branch of the Spinola di Luccoli and Francisca Ferrero, a native of Genoa. He was inscribed in the Golden Book of the Genoese nobility in 1655. He held, however, his first assignment for the Republic of Genoa in 1673 thus giving credit that the noble Luca Spinola initially preferred to take care of his family activities and personally govern the management of some of the family fiefdoms.[1]

In 1685 he was appointed supreme syndicator. In the customs elections of 27 August 1687, his name won with four discarding votes compared to the other candidate, the Magnificent Bendinelli Negrone. As doge he was also invested with the related biennial office of king of Corsica.[2]
