Richa, widow of Maier di Salamone di Leon d'Oro: Trieste, 1478
Subject
Richa, widow of Maier di Salamone di Leon d'Oro
Description
The widow Richa was a member of the Ashkenazic community of northern Italy. Her Latin will names her second son, Mose, as her universal heir, even though her other son, David, had been named universal heir in an earlier, Hebrew, document. David received a fund of money that his mother had previously invested in a bank on Istria. Miriam Davide notes that this will sparked great discord between the brothers, and it led to a drawn-out legal battle.
