Petition

Petition made by Diogo Soilheiro, acting as tutor of his grandson Manuel, asking for an exemplification of the will made by Mécia Álvares in which she ordered the foundation of an entail.

Soalheiro, Diogo (flor.1654)

Will

Will by which Mécia Álvares established an entail, composed of a rent of wheat taken from a property in the outskirts of Monforte, with a perpetual obligation of fifteen masses celebrated every year. She designated her cousin, padre Fernando Nunes, to administrate it, but only during his lifetime. After his death, he would be succeeded by António Rodrigues, her nephew, and by his descendants. If António had no children, the administration would be delivered to the Misericórdia of Alegrete.

Álvares, Mécia (flor.1573)
