Son of Cesare Franchi de Candia and grandson of the homonymous Federico De Franchi Toso, nephew of Gerolamo and Giacomo, Federico was born in Genoa around 1642.On 7 June 1701 the Grand Council appointed him new doge of Genoa, the ninety-first in two-year succession and the one hundred and thirty-sixth in republican history.
As doge he was also invested with the related biennial office of king of Corsica. Among the significant events of his mandate, his commitment against the smuggling that raged in western Liguria is attested. The dogato ended on 18 January 1728. Veneroso died in Genoa in 1739.
Ceased office as doge on 6 March 1750, he did not retire to private life, but rather continued to serve the state machine even in the post-customs period. The former doge died on 22 July 1756 leaving his only heirs the nephews Giovan Battista and Giacomo Cattaneo Della Volta, sons of the already deceased brother, and former doge Nicolò.
