Will

Will made by Maria Aires Castelo Branco in which she ordered the foundation of an entail and chapel, composed of an estate named Herdade do Barrenho, with a perpetual mass obligation of five masses celebrated every year. She named her daughter Mariana Zuzarte as first administrator of the entail and her children and descendants after her, with the condition that she would marry. However, if Mariana persisted in her wish to become a nun, she would not receive the administration of the entail, which would be immediately handled to her brother André Zuzarte. If none of them had children, the entail should be inherited by the closest relative.

Castelo Branco, Maria Aires (d.1676)
