Will

Will made by Guiomar Palmeira in which she ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of one daily mass celebrated in the mother church of Alter do Chão, where her body should be buried, alongside with her mother. She named her nephew Diogo Manhãs as first administrator of the entail, with the condition that he would marry one of his cousins Isabel Barreto or Guiomar Palmeira, daughters of his uncle João Vaz Manhãs, and if he did not, one of this two nieces who married would have the administration. If none of them wished to marry, then the Misericórdia of Alter do Chão would have the administration. No administrator could ever marry with descendants of new-christians, moors or mulatos.
