Until the middle of XIX century some inhabitants of Montevideo prescribed by testaments the foundation of pious works, like chaplaincies. Sometimes, this originated serious legal problems, confronting economic and spiritual interests of the descendants, and generating special conflicts among them. The analysis of two particular cases allows us to enlighten the process of increasing complexity of social relationships at the end of the colonial epoch in the River Plate.
