Will made in Alpalhão by Joana Martins, in which she ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of five entails. The first entail would be composed of some houses in Alpalhão over which she imposed a perpetual mass obligation of one mass celebrated every year, and to administrate it she named her niece Maria, daughter of Maria Inchada. The second entail would be composed of a vineyard in the outskirts of Alpalhão over which she imposed a perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year, and to administrate it she named her nephew João Dias Loução during his lifetime, and, after his death, he would be succeeded by his son Tomé Pinheiro, and from there on the succession should always continue on the closest heir. The third entail would be administrated by Ana, daughter of Maria Inchada, and would be composed of some houses, a land and vineyards in Alpalhão, over which she imposed a perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year. The fourth entail would be composed of some houses and a land in the outskirts of Alpalhão over which the institutor imposed a perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year, and to administrate it she named her nephew Gonçalo, son of Maria Inchada. The fifth entail would be composed of some houses and a land in the outskirts of Crato, over which the institutor imposed a perpetual mass obligation of two masses celebrated every year, and to administrate it she named her niece Inês, daughter of Maria Inchada. All her nephews, sons of her sister Maria Inchada, would be succeeded by their descendants, and, if any of them died without children, the entailed assets of this nephew would be shared among the sisters and brothers equally, and if their bloodline was extinguished the administration would be handled to the closest relative.
