Will made by Nuno da Fonseca Coutinho, in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of two entails. The first entail, composed of an estate named Quinta do Reguengo, in Portalegre's district, with the perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year. This entail would be administrated by his son Manuel da Fonseca Coutinho, who remained in Castille after the acclamation of D. João IV, with the condition that he would return to Portugal and administrate the entail, and after his death the succession should continue always, preferably, on the eldest male heir. This second entail would be composed of an estate named Herdade das Canas and other properties, with a perpetual mass obligation of three masses celebrated every year. To administrate it he named his son Diogo da Fonseca and after his death the succession should always continue on the eldest male heir, with the condition that all administrators that succeeds on the entail would annex half of their own reserved portions to the entail. If the administrators of both entails married with descendants of Hebrews, Moors or Mulattos, they would lose the administration.
