Ministry quod habuit Mithratus in Tuverasca cum valle Legunitia ”).
He had three vassals named Gerbertus, Arnolphus and Berethgarius. The name Mathratus could come from Mahal / Mal (Old High German) or Mathal (Old Saxon) for court and Ratus (Latin) for confirmed, valid, valid, legally binding. A ministry comprised goods (fiefs, churches) and rights (interest and taxes).
He owned the church of St. Martin in Ilanz and a royal court in St. Martin near the village of Hillande (Ilanz). Gerbertus, Arnolphus and Berethgarius had together a Curtis zu Ruis (in villa Ruana) with arable and meadow land and three Alps .
