The heirs’ lawsuit over Felipe Álvarez’s confiscated property and their mothers’ dowries, with copied instruments from 1578 to 1641. All 208 manuscript faces have had a visual pass and 141 were read closely; no face is fully translated, and unread words stay marked. Pleadings state each party’s case and are not findings.
The 1624 power is granted by Felipe Álvarez’s heirs, naming Pedro Álvarez de Dueñas among them.
The 1624 power names Francisco Méndez among Felipe Álvarez’s heirs; Francisco also calls Felipe his father.
The 1624 power names Gaspar Álvarez among Felipe Álvarez’s heirs.
The 1624 power names Justa Rodríguez de Dueñas as Pedro Álvarez de Dueñas’s mother.
The 1624 power names Isabel Méndez as Francisco Méndez’s mother.
The 1624 power names Isabel Méndez as Gaspar Álvarez’s mother.
The 1578 settlement arranges Felipe’s marriage to Justa Rodríguez, and the 1579 dowry receipt calls her his wife. Neither gives the wedding date or place.
Francisco Méndez’s petition calls Isabel Méndez “mi madre, tercera mujer que fue del dicho mi padre”.
A recital calls Justa Felipe’s first wife. Isabel Méndez is called his second marriage in one pleading and his third wife in Francisco’s petition. No wife between them is named, so a separate second wife remains a hypothesis.
The 1578 settlement calls Justa Rodríguez the daughter of the late Marcos Rodríguez.
The 1578 settlement calls Justa Rodríguez the daughter of the late Blanca Rodríguez.
In the 1578 settlement Enrique Fernández calls Justa his sister (“hermana de mi el dicho enrrique ffernandez”).
An inheritance claim names Baltasar Méndez among Felipe’s children.
An inheritance claim names Ana among Felipe’s children.
An inheritance claim names a younger Isabel Méndez among Felipe’s children.
An inheritance claim names María Álvarez among Felipe’s children.
The reply to the inheritance claim says it is not proved that Baltasar, Ana, the younger Isabel and María were Isabel Méndez’s children. Their mother is left open.
The lawsuit’s Felipe Álvarez, apothecary of Ribadavia, and the apothecary Felipe Álvarez sentenced in 1608 share name, trade, town and a son Gaspar. The match is not proved by either source.
Both sources name a Gaspar Álvarez, son of Felipe Álvarez.
The settlement’s Justa Rodríguez and the Coimbra catalogue’s Justa Rodrigues share both parents’ names and Lamego.
Marcos Rodríguez is Justa’s father in both sources.
Blanca Rodríguez in the settlement and Branca Rodrigues in the catalogue are Justa’s mother in both sources.
