Court sentence

Court sentence issued by the Juiz de Fora of Alter do Chão judging the will made by the deceased Álvaro Garcia and Catarina Gomes Garcia as firm and well made, and ordering that it should be fullfilled.

Garcia, Catarina Gomes (d.1692)

Will

Will made by Álvaro Garcia Mendes and his sister Catarina Gomes Garcia in which they ordered the foundation of an entail composed of several properties in Alter do Chão. To administrate it they named their nephew Bartolomeu Garcia do Carvalhal and his descendants after him, with the condition that every administrator would reserve 10.000 réís every year to be spent in the perpetual celebration of masses for their souls. If Bartolomeu had no children, the administration should be handled to Álvaro Garcia, son of Manuel de Freme.

Mendes, Álvaro Garcia (d.1673)

Will

Will made by Catarina Gomes Garcia, in which she confirmed the foundation of the entail that she founded with her brother Álvaro Garcia Mendes and added the following dispositions. As Bartolomeu Garcia do Carvalhal, appointed to administrate the entail, had already passed away, she named his daughter Catarina do Carvalhal as first administrator and her eldest heir, male or female after her. If Catarina died without descendants, the administration should be handled to her sister Beatriz Garcia, and after her death to their nephew Álvaro Garcia Freme, and if he also died without children, then the administration should be handled to Catarina Gomes. She also disposed that the entail would have a perpetual mass obligation of ten masses celebrated every year. She explicitly excluded her nephew João Nunes do Carvalhal and all his descendants from the administration.
