Altadonna, widow of Minixi de Messina

Description

The original will is written on 6 March 1454. She names her son Salomone as universal heir.

On 26 March, Altadonna adds a codicil which orders Lia (a son?) to be paid 7.15 ounces. Until the time that Lia is paid that amount, he should be allowed to live in one of the houses that had originally been left to the universal heir Salomone. She also confirms that Lia is entitled to an annual rent of two ounces.

Simonsohn records the late husband's name as Muxixi; Scandaliato reads it as Minixi (used here).
