Secondary list · traced to AHN, Inquisición, leg. 2042, exp. 45, via Estévez Pérez 2017

A list of people from Ribadavia and its region sentenced at the Santiago autos de fe of 11 May 1608, 22 February 1609 and 8 September 1610, with new accusations recorded in 1609. The working copy cites no source; it is traced to Estévez Pérez, “La tumba de Felipe Álvarez, judaizante”, Diversarum Rerum 12 (2017), which cites the relación of 24 May 1608 in AHN, Inquisición, leg. 2042, exp. 45. The originals have not been read. Ages, origins, offences and sentences are reported as listed; confessions obtained under the Inquisition’s procedure, often under torture, are not findings.
