Will

Will made by Manuel Gonçalves Gamboa, in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of two entails. The first entail would be composed of some houses in Marvão over which he imposed a perpetual obligation of one mass celebrated every year. To administrate it, he named his niece Leonor, daughter of Filipe Gonçalves, as first administrator during her lifetime, and, after her death, the succession should continue on the closest heir of her father's bloodline. He also left a land for padre Francisco Gomes, during his lifetime, with a perpetual obligation of one mass celebrated every year, and, after his death, this land should be incorporated on the entail administrated by Leonor. The second entail would be composed of the houses where the institutor lived, over which he imposed a perpetual obligation of two masses celebrated every year. To administrate it he named his cousin Francisco Rodrigues Canhoto and his descendants after him, or, if he had none, the administration would be handled to the closest relative that belonged to the lineage of the institutor's father.
