[i] Tuccio made a bequest of 100 gold florins to re-endow his family's chapel with an obligation for a mass on the feast of the Assumption and the day afterwards for his soul. He also requested masses in honor of Francesco di Giovanni di Taddeo Ferrucci da Fiesole and his relatives on July 28th. Carmine records show that his descendants, nephews Leonardo and Niccolò d'Antonio, refinanced their portion of the bequest in 1507 with proceeds from a workshop in via delli Stracciaiolo near the church of San Leo and continued to make payments through 1525. Another descendant, great-nephew Ruberto di Leonardo, arranged for his portion to be paid from proceeds from a house in the parish of S. Pier Buonconsiglio in via del Forese. See ASFi, Corporazioni Religiosi soprresse dal Governo Francese, 113, vol. 13, p. 51, no. 95.

[o] Leonardo provided funds for two masses, one in May and the other in November, to be said annually.
