The following is excepted from a presentation given at the Jerusalem genealogy conference in July 2004-Ed. y interest in family trees was awakened many years ago, probably as a result of the consciousness of roots in our family. My grandfather, Mordecahi Salomon, was the grandson of Yoel Moshe Salomon, a well-known figure of the Old Yishuv, and like some of my relatives, I used to draw family trees and trace my past. In 1987, in the course of my work at SHAAM Information Systems, the need arose to provide users of the service with information on the family trees of the entire population of Israel for tax purposes. This was a challenge unlike the singlefamily tree I had dealt with before. Here were millions of people, and I needed to think and plan how best to build a family tree on such a scale. I describe below the structure of the national family tree, the way it was planned and built and also the services obtainable from it. The information presented in the system is available to its users (workers in the Israeli tax department) for their work purposes, but is not open for private research. According to the Israeli law on population census and the protection of privacy, a person is entitled to receive information about himself or herself, but not about other people (other than name and address). The family tree that was developed in the system is not open to the public at large, pursuant to present-day restrictions.

My interest in family trees was awakened many years ago, probably as a result of the consciousness of roots in our family. My grandfather Mordechai Salomon was the grandson of Yoel Moshe Salomon, and like some of my relatives I used to draw family trees and trace my past. In 1987, in the course of my work at SHAAM-Information Systems, the need arose to provide users of the service with information on the family trees of the entire population of Israel, for tax purposes. This was a challenge unlike the single-family tree I had dealt with hitherto: here were millions of people, and I needed to think and plan how best to build a family tree on such a scale. The lecture that follows will describe the structure of the national family tree, the way it was planned and built, and also the services obtainable from it. The information presented in the system is available to its users (workers in tax departments) for their work purposes, but is not open for private research. According to the law (Population Census and the Protection of Privacy), a person is entitled to receive information about himself or herself, but not about other people (apart from name and address). Hence the family tree that was developed in the system is not open to public at large, according to present-day restrictions.

was the wife of Iskhak Abdulovich Akhmerov, a leading KGB field officer of the 1930s and 1940s. In his long career Akhmerov served in Turkey, China, Switzerland, and the United States. He was regarded as a highly successful field intelligence officer, and a book about Akhmerov's career was used as a text at the KGB training academy, the Andropov Red Banner Institute, in the 1980s. During his first tour in the USA in the 1930s as an illegal officer (not under diplomatic cover) he met a young American woman, Helen Lowry. Lowry came to the KGB via the Communist Party of the USA (CPUSA) and served as a courier and assistant to the professional KGB officers, worked closely with Akhmerov, and in the late 1930s married him. She accompanied her husband to the USSR in 1939 when his tour ended and accepted Soviet citizenship. 1 During Akhmerov's second US tour as chief of the KGB illegal station in the early 1940s Helen Lowry Akhmerova worked as an active KGB agent, as well as giving birth to a daughter in 1944. She appeared in the deciphered Venona traffic numerous times under her cover names Elsa, Nelly, and Stella. 2 She returned to the USSR with her husband and daughter in 1946. Elizabeth Bentley, who supervised several large CPUSA-based networks for the KGB and who turned herself in to the FBI in 1945, dealt with both

This article lists the names, and other information, on approximately 3,000 persons identified as victims or perpetrators of crimes in Ireland in the period 1821-1860. The names were extracted from proclamations or 'Wanted Posters' published to seek information which would lead to capture of the perpetrators of the crime, and offering rewards for same. Thousands of such proclamations were published in the Dublin Gazette between 1821 and 1860. The vast majority of those named are crime victims. The content usually includes an address and often other information on the victim's household and their circumstances, as well as on the crime. It was originally published as an e-book by Flyleaf Press (now closed) in 2022.

The author effectuate the analysis of scientific literature under the examination of the neurobiological characteristics of "social brain" and "theory of mind", as anatomical differences between the brain of an autistic person and the brain of a neurotypical person, in order to be the most important component of the autistic disorder spectrum. The theory of mind dysfunction is unique to autism spectrum disorder. The idea that there is a theory of mind has been confirmed by research in brain imaging. Then, the transition was extended to include another concept, which is "neural pathway". The article cites research that illustrates the anatomical regionsof the human brain for social communication – the neural pathway, also the perception pattern of a person with autism.

Zaburzenia ze spektrum autyzmu ujawniane przez dzieci stanowią dla ich matek poważne wyzwanie. Z tego powodu matki dzieci z ASD doświadczają stresu o zdecydowanie większym nasileniu aniżeli matki dzieci z innymi rodzajami niepełnosprawności lub zaburzeń w stanie zdrowia. Stopień natężenia stresu zależy jednak od różnych czynników, które można uporządkować w obrębie trzech obszarów dotyczących: indywidualnych cech matki, indywidualnych cech dziecka oraz kontekstu sytuacyjnego. W artykule przedstawiona została analiza wybranych stresorów, które na podstawie przeglądu literatury można uznać za istotne w obrębie wspomnianych trzech grup czynników. Jednak ze względu na złożoność problematyki stresu, przestawionej listy potencjalnych stresorów nie można uznać za zamkniętą.

The early modern period witnessed an increase in women's writing as a result of the significant spread of literacy. Among the sources of a personal nature, correspondence is the most useful for research, especially the letters of the nobility, as these are the most widespread and thus the most accessible type of egodocuments from this period. The constant threat from the Ottoman presence in East-Central Europe meant that men were frequently away from home, whether for military or political reasons, and so the agenda of looking after the family estate fell into the hands of women. Being able to read, write, and do basic mathematics thus became a necessity for women to be adequately able to look after the family estates. The paper deals with the issue of women's education in the early modern period on the basis of an analysis of the correspondence of Baroness Judith Balassa (c. 1630-c. 1685), the second wife of Stephen I. Koháry (1616-1664), who, after his sudden death, had to take care of the family property and provide for her descendants. The paper examines the matter of the education and upbringing of noble girls in this period. Subsequently, the educational level of Judith Balassa is characterised by analysing her written expression and comparing it with that of other literate aristocratic women. Alongside this, attention is also paid to the question of the linguistic competence of Judith Balassa and her closest family members.

El libro nos invita a volver al pasado e imaginarnos como vivieron los primeros pobladores de la Villa de Oropesa (ciudad de Cochabamba) después de su fundación en 1571. El lector podrá imaginarse inmiscuido entre los que haceres cotidianos de los habitantes y entre las labores y decisiones de los patriarcas de las familias más influyentes. La ubicación de la Villa en los valles, y su tierra fértil y productiva derivaron en que a la postre se convierta en un polo de desarrollo económico para abastecer de insumos a otras regiones.
Quedará muy claro que fue un grupo de colonos muy reducido a principios del siglo XVII el cual se empeñó en desarrollar la urbe. Existía una alta dependencia de la economía familiar de estos pobladores con relación a sus chacras y haciendas en las cercanías de la Villa y dependían, a la vez, de la labor en muchos casos forzada, de los campesinos quienes labraban la tierra.
La narrativa y los resúmenes de documentos del archivo bibliotecario en Sucre y de los Archivos Españoles incluidos nos transportan a una época en que el día a día conllevaba muchos retos para poder salir adelante y en la cual la corona y la influencia de la Real Audiencia de Charcas jugaban un papel determínate en la vida de los pobladores. Todo esto queda plasmado en los registros y detalles sobre Testamentos, otorgamiento de cargos (confirmaciones de oficio), obligaciones de pago, poderes legales a terceros, compra y permuta de animales y de esclavos, concesión de arras en matrimonio, etc.
El resultado es que el lector podrá entender la dinámica de la sociedad de la época y también podrá extraer una idea sobria de la forma en la cual se manejaban la administración pública, el clero y los militares que estaban a cargo de la seguridad pública de la Villa.

Born in Iasi in 1863, engineer Dumitru Vasescu is the first Romanian who designed and produced the first Romanian steam car, characterized as "the most perfect car of that time". Vasescu built the vehicle in Paris and it could be seen, at first, on the streets of the great capital, presumably representing a sensation of the time. In 1906, the constructor brought its invention to Bucharest and was exhibited at the museum of the National School of Bridges and Roads of Bucharest, and on the 10th of May 1906, he became a tenured professor, until his premature death on the 29th of October 1909, because of tuberculosis. Dimitrie Văsescu is the author of two patents obtained during his stay in Paris.

A genealogia é o estudo da história da família e do traçado de linhagens. É um domínio que existe há séculos e que sofreu alterações significativas ao longo dos anos. O advento da tecnologia e a disponibilidade de dados revolucionaram o campo da genealogia, facilitando o rastreio de árvores genealógicas e a descoberta de ligações ancestrais. No entanto, ainda existem muitas lacunas no nosso conhecimento da genealogia e muitas áreas requerem mais estudos genealógicos. Este documento discute algumas das linhas de investigação genealógica que podem ser adotadas no futuro e que irão revolucionar o campo da genealogia. Os tópicos abordados incluem a utilização de testes de ADN na genealogia, a integração da tecnologia nos estudos genealógicos, a exploração de recursos genealógicos menos conhecidos e a análise dos padrões de migração e o seu impacto na história da família.

Jovellanos accedió a la titularidad del mayorazgo familiar a la muerte de su hermano Francisco de Paula en agosto de 1798. Durante décadas Jovino había manifestado sus críticas hacia la institución, tanto desde una perspectiva jurídica, como económica y social. Convertido en el mayorazgo de su casa, las investigaciones han puesto de manifiesto los escasos ingresos procedentes de la gestión del patrimonio familiar y, sobre todo, la atención del ilustrado hacia sus renteros. El presente estudio ofrece la edición documental de tres cartas de obligación y una fianza, realizadas ante un escribano del número del concejo de Villaviciosa (Asturias). En ellas se muestran distintas deudas que algunos habitantes de la zona tenían con Jovellanos. Mediante las mismas podemos aproximarnos a la relación del intelectual con esta zona, y a sus gestiones en las que, como muchos otros dueños del dominio directo, apremió a sus colonos cuando las deudas se acumulaban.

Family History Methods is an extension of the Dating Antique Photographs Project, which started in 2024. It not only aims to provide members of the public with the skills necessary to succeed in family history research, such as dating old photographs and searching for records but to give their research historical relevance. The goal is to advance family history as a vehicle for historical inquiry, given its potential to motivate academic research. To fulfil this aim, the project's workshops and handbook are designed to guide members of the public in identifying how their family history research can contribute to knowledge in ways that interest people outside their family and show the variety of outlets available to present their research. Brandon Taylorian, the Project Lead, will explain during the workshops how his family history research has led him to produce academic journal articles and other publications that have contributed to knowledge.

Обер-секретарь Шильт: прОсОпОграфический Очерк Аннотация. Непримечательные подробности прошедшей жизни часто остаются собранием курьезных фактов, которым не находится места в изображаемой наукой картине прошлого. Тем ценнее те редкие случаи, когда разрозненные события удается связать. Статья посвящена обер-секретарю Сената Ивану Ивановичу Шильту (1757-1796), который не попадал ранее в поле зрения исследователей. Авторский вклад Шильта в русскую литературу ничтожен. Его перу принадлежит одно стихотворение по случаю, напечатанное и сохранившееся, вероятно, в единственном экземпляре, а также, возможно, два перевода: прозаический-с французского языка и поэтический-на немецкий язык. Однако влияние Шильта на литературный процесс в России конца XVIII в. оказывается гораздо более существенным благодаря критическим высказываниям, запечатленным в мемуарах поэта и сенатора Ивана Дмитриева. В статье устанавливаются факты биографии Шильта, показывается, из каких тонких и трудно уловимых взаимодействий читающей и пишущей публики формируются пространство литературы и литературные вкусы в конце XVIII столетия. Ключевые слова: Россия, XVIII в., литературный процесс, литературная критика, поэзия, мемуары, история литературы, просопография Благодарности. При подготовке публикации использованы результаты проекта «Язык, литература и культура в историческом и социальном измерении», выполняемого в рамках Программы фундаментальных исследований НИУ ВШЭ в 2025 г.

Resumo/Abstract
Os vestígios patrimoniais de antigos conventos existentes no concelho de Vila Franca de
Xira, ainda perduram na Paisagem e na memória das gentes, confirmados pelas fontes
escritas ou arqueológicas, e inseridos numa paisagem em constante mutação.
Retratamos e deixamos para memória futura, neste estudo, três conventos inexistentes
fisicamente, mas que em alguns casos, ainda são visíveis na paisagem algumas estruturas
arruinadas, confirmadas pela documentação arquivística disponível que desvenda a sua
história.
O primeiro Convento abordado é o de freiras Clarissas, de Nossa Senhora de Subserra em
Castanheira do Ribatejo, cujos vestígios patrimoniais foram suplantados na década de
oitenta do século XX, restando apenas algumas epígrafes, e documentação referente à sua
extinção.
O segundo que analisámos é o convento de Nossa Senhora dos Anjos, que era de frades
franciscanos e cujas ruínas encimam o monte sobranceiro à quinta Municipal do
Sobralinho. E por último o convento de Nossa Senhora do Amparo, também de frades
franciscanos, na Verdelha do Ruivo em Vialonga, cujos vestígios patrimoniais, no caso
da primeira fundação, se dispersam por casas particulares, e a segunda fundação
corresponde a uma habitação particular, no local da sua refundação.
Todas as unidades conventuais estudadas foram fundadas por famílias nobres e influentes,
no contexto político e institucional de 1546 a 1597, ligando-se igualmente à esfera
devocional e individual das mesmas. Nomeadamente os Ataídes, os Alcáçovas, os Sousas,
os Menezes e os Castelo Branco. A caracterização foi feita com base na análise dos
vestígios arqueológicos e patrimoniais, existentes, e na consulta de fontes documentais
disponíveis.

The heritage remnants of former convents in the municipality of Vila Franca de Xira still
persist in the landscape and in the collective memory of local communities, confirmed by
written and archaeological sources, and embedded within a landscape in constant
transformation.
This study seeks to document and preserve for future memory three convents that no
longer exist physically, although, in some cases, ruined structures remain partially visible
in the landscape. These remnants are corroborated by archival documentation that reveals
their history.
The first convent examined is that of the Poor Clares, Nossa Senhora de Subserra, located
in Castanheira do Ribatejo. Its material traces were largely erased in the 1980s, with only
a few inscriptions and documentation related to its extinction remaining.
The second is the Convent of Nossa Senhora dos Anjos, formerly inhabited by Franciscan
friars, whose ruins stand atop the hill overlooking the Municipal Estate of Sobralinho.
Finally, the Convent of Nossa Senhora do Amparo, also Franciscan, situated in Verdelha
do Ruivo (Vialonga), presents a more fragmented legacy: the remnants of its first
foundation are dispersed among private homes, while the site of its second foundation is
now occupied by a private residence.
All the conventual institutions studied were established between 1546 and 1597 by noble
and influential families within the political and institutional context of the time. They
were closely tied to the founders’ devotional practices and personal legacies. These
families include the Ataíde, Alcáçova, Sousa, Menezes, and Castelo Branco lineages.
The characterization of these convents was carried out through the analysis of existing
archaeological and heritage remains, supported by the consultation of available
documentary sources

Ce livre propose une généalogie ascendante complète de la famille Tessier, élaborée à partir de Joseph Marie Louis Constant Tessier (1899–1974) et retraçant les lignées familiales jusqu’au XVIe siècle dans le Pays de Retz, en Loire-Atlantique. S'appuyant sur plus de quarante années de recherches initiées dans les années 1990 par Georgette Tessier et poursuivies par son fils Thierry Tessier, historien et expert en art, cet ouvrage croise les sources archivistiques (registres paroissiaux, actes notariés, documents cadastraux) avec des récits familiaux, des photographies et des témoignages biographiques. En mêlant approche documentaire et sensibilité mémorielle, il restitue non seulement des filiations, mais aussi les effets des grands événements historiques – guerres de Religion, Révolution, épidémies, guerres mondiales – sur la trajectoire des membres de la famille. L’ouvrage s’inscrit également dans une démarche psychogénéalogique, en posant la question de la transmission inconsciente des héritages familiaux. Au-delà du travail de mémoire, il constitue une archive précieuse sur l’histoire sociale, rurale et religieuse d’un territoire souvent peu documenté. Cette monographie généalogique, riche de plus de 790 pages, se veut à la fois rigoureuse et humaine, et offre un modèle d’enquête intergénérationnelle qui s’adresse autant aux historiens qu’aux lecteurs sensibles aux voix effacées du passé.

In 2020, Tony Tibbles published his account of the Watt owners/occupants of Speke Hall, bringing together in one place what was commonly known, had been already published and asserted in print, and attempting to summarise and evaluate it. He concluded that some items seem apocryphal but there is not enough concrete data to confirm or refute them, that Richard Watt may (or may not) have been a relative of Robert Watt, living in Shevington, but that lack of a baptismal record denies us the opportunity to establish Richard's parenthood. There is more.

A magyar néprajzkutatók Háromszéket már a 19. század végén Erdély egyik legpolgárosultabb vidékének tartották. Háromszék, azon belül Orbaiszék gyors polgárosulását elsősorban a sajátos természeti, társadalmi, kulturális, mentális, felekezeti és etni kai viszonyok határozták meg.2 3 Kiemeljük, hogy Orbaiszéknek még a rendi korban sem volt jelentősebb cé hes, városi központja. A vidék lakossága elsősorban a helyi sokadalmakat, valamint a közelebb fekvő Kézdivásárhely és Sepsiszentgyörgy vásárait látogatta, de ugyanakkor Brassóba is szállítottak faárut, gyapjút, szövetet, zöldségeket, gyümölcsöket és állato kat. A közeli brassói polgárok és a Barcaságon élő szász földművesek folyamatosan hatást gyakoroltak a háromszéki falvak gazdasági, művelődési és egyházi életére, polgárosulására és modernizációjára.2 Az orbaiszéki templomok pallérjai, a reneszánsz stílusban festett kazettás mennyezetek piktorai, különböző kegyszerek (kelyhek, serlegek, poharak stb.), orgo nák kézművesei és készítői között is gyakran találkozunk szász (barcasági, kőhalomszéki) mester nevével.4 Sepsi-és Kézdiszék valamint Erdővidék mellett, a többségében református falusi közösségekből álló Orbaiszék sajátos kultúrával és mentalitással rendelkezett. Elsősorban a közeli, barcasági szász prédikátoroknak köszönhető, hogy Orbaiszék lakosságának jelentős része már a 16. század második felében protestáns, református hitre tért.5 A hitújítás, a Sepsiszéken élő székelyekhez hasonlóan, ebben a térségben is jóval racionálisabb életvezetési mintákat, nyitottabb kulturális modelleket, új kapcso latokat honosított meg.6 Csáki Árpád és Szőcsné Gazda Enikő legújabb közleményei, amiket elsősorban egyházi írott források alapján készítettek, azt jelzik, hogy a protes táns falvak erkölcsi rendje hogyan árnyalódott, alakult át az utóbbi háromszáz évben.7 A közoktatás szintén a reformáció után bontakozott ki Orbaiszék falvaiban.

Ontwerptekeningen van de Muidertrekvaart dateren uit 1640. De ontwerper was de Amsterdamse landmeter Cornelis Danckertsz de Rij. De vaart is aangelegd in het verlengde van “de oude vaer sloot”, die het Diemermeer verbond met de Korte Diem. De Muidertrekvaart doorsneed onder andere het landbezit van de familie Vinck, naamgever van de latere Vinkenbrug over de vaart. Pieter Egbertsz Vinck overleed enkele jaren voor de realisatie van de Muidertrekvaart.

L’église du village de Bălineşti (département de Suceava) a attiré, ce dernier temps, l’attention du public intéressé, grâce, d’une part, aux amples travaux de restauration qui ont visé ce monument, et, d’autre part, à la création d’une nouvelle communauté monastique autour d’elle. En réalité, le fondateur – Ioan Tăutu († 1511), grand chancelier de Moldavie (1475–1511) – a érigé cette église avant 1500 en tant que chapelle pour la cour qu’il possédait dans ce village, mais aussi comme nécropole pour les membres de sa famille ; dans le même laps de temps, il a fondé son propre monastère, à Trestiana (Vaslui), disparu depuis quelques siècles. Les sources historiques jettent une lumière insolite sur la construction de cette église, en ce qui concerne non seulement la justification de l’acte fondateur, mais aussi la datation : l’inscription votive porte l’année 1499, mais les dalles funéraires conservées à l’intérieur prouvent que l’église fonctionnait déjà quelques années auparavant. Des observations et des hypothèses plus récentes permettent de reprendre et de nuancer la discussion concernant la datation de ce monument exceptionnel. D’autre part, la transmission de la propriété du village aux descendants du grand chancelier Tăutu a mis en évidence de possibles falsifications de documents qui mentionnent non seulement la cour, mais aussi l’église.

„AU MILIEU DES LIVRES, MES SEULS CAMARADES”. LETTRES DE ION SIADBEI ADRESSEES A ARTHUR GOROVEI
(Résumé)
L’auteur présente 40 documents épistolaires (lettres, cartes postales, cartes postales illustrées, un télégramme) adressés par le philologue et linguiste roumain Ion Șiadbei (1903–1977) à son oncle maternel, Arthur Gorovei (1864–1951), folkloriste et écrivain, membre (correspondant, à l’époque) de l’Académie Roumaine. Les lettres de 1919-1920 dévoilent la précocité d’un adolescent, dont les connaissances et les préoccupations scientifiques annonçaient le futur savant. Malheureusement, la carrière de I. Șiadbei dut connaître des péripéties inattendues et, en quelque sorte, inexplicables (ou difficiles à expliquer). Des conjonctures souvent défavorables, alliées parfois à son tempérament difficile, ont contribué à ses échecs. Sa vie reste presque inconnue (ou mal connue) et ses écrits scientifiques ne furent jamais réédités. Il perdit sa vie à Bucarest, dans le terrible tremblement de terre du 4 mars 1977, au milieu de ses livres et manuscrits; il est très probable que ses papiers périssent à cette même occasion. Les lettres conservées dans les archives de la famille d’Arthur Gorovei deviennent ainsi des témoignages précieux pour une future biographie de ce savant.

Antique photographs not only reveal the attitudes, customs and tastes popular in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries but bring people together through a mutual interest in ancestral research and local history. The Antique Photographs Project aimed to develop resources to guide family historians on how to date old photographs. The presentation will give a brief history of the development of photography. It will also highlight the best methods for analysing and preserving antique photographs and reflect on the project’s outputs, including a handbook, journal articles and a series of workshops developed for archivists and members of the public.

Dans l’histoire plusieurs fois séculaire de la famille Tăutu (ayant sa première attestation documentaire en 1430, mais dont les débuts généalogiques appartiennent avec certitude au siècle précédent), Siméon occupe une place importante, tout en constituant néanmoins une personnalité trop peu connue. Quoiqu’indiscutable, sa liaison avec le touffu arbre généalogique des Tăutu – dont le représentant le plus illustre fut le grand chancelier de Moldavie en 1475-1511, au temps d’Étienne le Grand et de son fils Bogdan III – n’a pas pu être établie avec précision. Né vers 1720, il a servi longtemps Isprăvnicia (la préfecture du temps) de Suceava, sous l’administration roumaine : il fut le dernier vornic moldave de la ville de Suceava, l’ancienne capitale de la principauté (dans les villes, le vornic représentait le pouvoir princier). Après l’incorporation de la Bucovine à l’Empire des Habsbourg (1775), il fut sollicité par les autorités autrichiennes à cause de son expérience, extrêmement utile pour construire les relations avec les Roumains de ce nouveau district impérial.
Son activité sous l’administration autrichienne nécessite une investigation à part. On doit à Siméon Tăutu la seconde fondation religieuse de la famille (l’église du village de Comănești, dans le département de Suceava, où il fut enterré en 1792). En 1789, les autorités autrichiennes lui ont reconnu le statut de noble du royaume de Galicie (auquel la Bucovine appartenait du point de vue administratif). Quoiqu’il n’apporte pas des informations biographiques substantielles, son testament dévoile son caractère et nous rapproche de l’homme qu’il fut. Avec un héritage assez réduit, il a su amasser, par ses services, des biens importants, de sorte qu’il put préparer les dots pour ses cinq filles et quatre fils. Parmi ses fils, deux (Jean et Georges) ont passé la frontière pour s’établir dans la principauté moldave, à Jassy et à Botoșani. Leur postérité, continuée jusqu’aujourd’hui, compte quelques personnes importantes pour l’histoire moderne et contemporaine de la Moldavie et de la Roumanie. Le vornic Jean Tăutu († 1826), qui refonda l’église de l’Annonciation de Jassy, un des nobles du pays qui sont allés à Istanbul pour y demander la restauration des règnes autochtones (remplaçant les phanariotes), fut le grand-père de Théodore Tăutu (1828-1902), maire de la ville de Jassy, et arrière-grand-père du colonel (devenu général) Théodore T. Tăutu (1868-1937), héros de la Grande Guerre ; de la même branche descendent aussi d’autres gens d’armes bien connus. Le vornic Georges Tăutu ((† 1802) fut le père du comis Jean Tăutu (1795-1830), penseur et homme politique de la renaissance nationale roumaine, et grand-père de Georges Tăutu (1823-1885), poète et chef des Archives de l’État de Jassy.

Investigating the lives and destinies of the women mentioned by Wallachian late medieval and early modern sources is a rather new field of inquiry in the Romanian historical scholarship, although several case-studies have been published throughout the last years. The present article aims to outline, as far as the sources disclosed it, the biography of a noblewoman from the Oltenia region. She lived in the 18th century and her name was Catrina Goran, a former wife of Lord Chamberlain Radu Goran. The articles is based on several documents found in different Romanian archives and, particularly, on two, still unpublished, testaments dictated by the above-mentioned noblewoman. The first testament dates from July 1767, while the second is from October 1779. Both documents reveal numerous details not only with regard to Catrina’s life and family, but also to her last dispositions. Catrina wanted her wealth shared between several ecclesiastical foundations – the Wallachian Metropolitan See, the Râmnic bishopric and the Dintrunlemn monastery – and her birth relatives. The appendix of the articles includes an edition of both testaments, along with a few other documents.
