Palomba, widow of the late Samuele di Monte Pascolo(?)

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.
