Will

Will made by Manuel Landeiro Mergulhão in which he ordered the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of forty masses celebrated every year in the church of S. Francisco's convent, in Portalegre. He named his niece Maria da Mota as first administrator of the entail and, after her death, the succession should always continue, preferably on the eldest male heir. If Maria had no children, the administration should be handled to her sisters Catarina de Oliveira or Joana. If none of them had children, the administration should be given to the closest relative with the same conditions.

Mergulhão, Manuel Landeiro (d.1673)

Codicil
