Created Thursday 10 April 2014
4th Nov. 897, the act of endowment of a supposedly newly-built chapel of St-Pierre de Favars by Bishop Anselm of Limoges with all supporting clergy (four archdeacons, four archpriests and six priests), not surprising as the charter was given in synod at Limoges rather than on site. The response has, all the same, obviously taken some time as it is said to be Abbot Gairulf, who stopped appearing four years previously, who requested the intervention. What results is called a consecration, but is actually a recapitulation of the church's endowment, including the fisc of Chameyrac got from King Charles by Archbishop Raoul, where three old churches have apparently been pulled down and replaced with this one. The supporting properties and tithes have been reassigned from the churches that had taken over those churches' congregations, who will presumably now come to Favars, with the consent of the relevant priests (wow!). These were St-Étienne de Chameyrac (with three manses in Favars, seven in Champagnac, one in Lanconie), St-Germain de Combroux (3 manses), Saint-Maixent de Villières (3 manses) and Saint-Maixent-des-Bordes (3 manses). The documents is dated in the Roman calendar, anno domini, by Indiction, and with the years in office of both King Eudes and Bishop Anselm.
