Will

Will made in Monforte by Gil Afonso, in which he ordered the foundation of an entail composed of a courela near the estate of Freixo, with the perpetual obligation of seven masses celebrated every year in the church of Nossa Senhora da Graça, where he wished to be buried. He named his wife Catarina Álvares as first administrator during her lifetime and his brother Sebastião Álvares, after her death. Sebastião would be succeeded by the eldest daughter of the institutor, and she would be succeeded by the eldest son of Sebastião, and from there on the succession should always continue on the closest relative.

Afonso, Gil (d.1581)
