Will

Will by which Iseu Pereira, wife of Martinho Vaz Castelo Branco, expresses her wish to be buried in the cathedral of Portalegre. She declares that her reserved portion, headed by her herdade dos Cantos, in Monforte, should be split in three equal parts in order to institute three entails, that should be administrated by her husband during his lifetime, and, after his death, by her sons Nuno Vaz, Trajano Rodrigues and Gonçalo Vaz, and their descendants after them. If any of them decided to became a clergyman or if any of them had no children, the entailed assets should be handled to the others, and, if none of them had children, their brother João Rodrigues or the closest relative would receive the administration. Each entail or chapel would have a perpetual obligation of three masses celebrated every year. None of them could marry against the will of their father, or, otherwise, would lose the administration.

Pereira, Iseu (flor.1614)
