Entail foundation deed

Entail foundation deed by Gaspar de Magalhães de Meneses, fidalgo da casa do rei, and his wife Catarina Barbosa. They both reserved their "terças", incorporating in this portion and in the entail the manor of Torre, in São Salvador de Vila Cova, together with their halves of the farmsteads of Pereira and Porta. The first administrator would be their first-born son, Tomé de Magalhães de Meneses. Tomé and his successors were forced to order the celebration of perpetual masses in the chapel of Santo António, located in the manor of Torre. After their son, the succession should run as it is stated in the "Ordenações" of the Kingdom. The successors were compelled to use the surnames Magalhães and Meneses. Clerics and illegitimate children were excluded from the administration, as well as those who had committed lese-majeste crimes.
