Specialist Notes
Interesting historical document concerning the transfer of ownership of several farmsteads and lands located in Martignano (Trento) from the Rovereti di Freiberg family ('Roveretti de Fraiberg' in the deed) to the Altemburger family, tobacco merchants in Trento.
The reason for the sale is due to the death on August 14, 1710 of Gio. Giuseppe Bonaventura Rovereti who left to his wife and eight children "debts ascending to the summa de Ragnesi five thousand, five hundred, eighty-three". The interest accrued on these debts prompted the Rovereti family to "alienate a farm with stately and rural houses and arable and vineyard and meadow assets located in this district of Trento called in Martignano, and Piazina", then follows the detailed list of properties. The sale takes place in favor of Pietro and Giuseppe, the Altemburger brothers. Below is the detailed list of debts left by Bonaventura Rovereti, for a total of 5583 Ragnesi [these are the Rhine florins, the currency adopted since the fourteenth century. in that area], and the related payment installments by the Altemburgers, 4 installments to be precise. At the end of the sale, the cost of the farm will amount to 20,843 ragnesi, minus the 5,583 of past debts, the sum of 15,260 remains with the Rovereti family to be distributed among the various heirs for different needs. The deed of sale is signed by the notary Antonio Ceschini at the bottom of the document in question, on the reverse of c.13, with a regular notarial stamp/seal. Below is the list of "Assignments and Releases" relating to the many creditors of the deceased, which will in fact be paid by the new buyers (debt-releasing payments).Valuable legal document that contains interesting details on property management , on the division of debts and revenues and in general on the administration in Trentino in the 18th century.
