Title A name given to the resource Perna, widow of the late Beniamino Cohen: Rome, 1577 Subject The topic of the resource Perna, widow of the late Beniamino Cohen Description An account of the resource Perna, identified as elderly ("zeqena"), bequeaths her dowry funds mostly to relatives. She leaves 3 scudi to one David di Hannania di Sabatello, for him to say the mourner's prayer (kaddish) for her, noting quite cheekily that he should only receive the money if he actually says kaddish for her. She also leaves small amounts to a synagogue (Scola Tempio), and two confraternities, one that cares for the needy and ill (Ghemilut Hasadim) and a women's confraternity (Betulot, literally virgins, a society that dowered brides). The will was recorded by Isach Piattelli, a Jewish notary, in Hebrew. DETAILED DESCRIPTION FROM KENNETH STOW: In the house of Menachem q.m Beniamino Cohen, his mother, the zechenah Perna, widow q.m Beniamino, writes her will, disposing of the 40 sc. which her husband gave her as dowry, since she did not bring any money of her own. She leaves 7 sc. to the bachurah Rinuzza, daughter of her brother Sabato, to be given to her when she marries; 5 sc. to Salomone, Moise and Giuseppe the mute, sons of her brother Elia; 5 sc. to Perna, daughter of her sister Preziosa; to her grandson Beniamino, son of Menachem 15 sc. as a matanah ghemurah to be used to study the Torah regularly; 3 sc. to David di Hannania di Sabatello to say the kaddish, but only if he actually says it; 3 sc. to her granddaughter Rosa, wife of Gabriele di Palestrina, daughter of Menachem; and 1 sc. each to the Scola Tempio, Ghemilut Hasadim and the "Betulot, that is the company of the women". Witnesses for the act are: Giacobbe di Benedetto Ha Rofeh del Piglio; Benedetto q.m Isach Levi Tedeschi; Haim q.m Saadia Moresco; Natan q.m Yehudah Tripolese; Angelo q.m Sabato Negri; Giacobbe q.m Gabriele di Nepi; and Benedetto q.m Isach Perugia. NOTE FROM K.S.: The mattanah gemurah is the Hebrew equivalent of an “irrevocable gift,” a donatio inter vivos, in ius commune, although the term is Talmudic in origin.

Description An account of the resource Palomba, testating while in the house of another widow, leaves her meager possessions to the confraternity known as the Compagnia di Ghemilut Hasadim, which, among other activities, cared for the ill, as it seems to have cared for Palomba. (See also the will of Cosa, widow of the late Angelo del Piglio.) The will is recorded by either Leone (father) or Isach (son) Piattelli, Jewish notaries, in Hebrew. It is also witnessed. DETAILED DESCRIPTION FROM KENNETH STOW: Palomba, widow q.m Samuele di Monte Pascolo (?), in the house of Nora, widow q.m Isach di Tivoli, leaves all her possessions, that is, a vest and her wool mattress to the Compagnia of Ghemilut Hasadim for services received now and in the future.

Title A name given to the resource Jamila, widow of Mosse Salerno: Zaragoza, 1401 Subject The topic of the resource Jamila, widow of Mosse Salerno Description An account of the resource Jamila and her late husband had four sons. Three of them remained Jewish (Juce, Acach, and Azmel), while one (Solomon-cum-Salvador) chose baptism and became Christian. In her will, Jamila left all four sons the amount stipulated for all legitimate sons -- 20 sueldos. Beyond that, she gave the Christian son (Solomon/Salvador) 380 sueldos, which he needed to get from repayment of debts that were owed to his mother. She then divided her remaining assets among the three Jewish children. As Blasco Martínez points out (see "Mujeres judías," 85), we do not know the total value of the estate, so we cannot know exactly how much Salvador received in comparison to his brothers. But we can likely guess that the estate left the Jewish brothers considerably more than the converted brother. Moreover, it is notable that Salvador's lump sum had to be recovered from his mother's debtors. Other documentary evidence suggests that Jamila died sometime before 14 January 1403.
