Documents produced by the entail.

Juízo dos Resíduos record of the entail instituted by Baltasar de Araújo.

Will of Baltasar de Araújo. The testator states that his body should be buried in the chapel of São Mamede, where he was baptised. He decided to bequeath his possessions to found a chapel, with the perpetual obligation of celebrating two masses a month in the chapel of São Mamede or in the chapel of S. Sebastião. Men were preferred to administer the chapel, and each administrator had to use the surname of the founder. If the institutor had a close relative who was a cleric, he would be preferred for the position of chaplain. The first administrator of the chapel had to register the deed of foundation in the "livro das capelas" of the Juízo dos Resíduos de Braga.
