Documents produced by the entail.

Will by which padre Pedro Álvares Mergulhão expresses his wish to be buried in the parish church of Nossa Senhora da Graça of Montalvão. He establishes an entail composed of his properties in Montalvão, with a perpetual pious obligation of one sung mass and three trinitaries of masses celebrated every year in the eight days after All Saints Day. He named his niece Carrilho as first administrator of the entail during her lifetime and, after her death, she would be succeeded by Manuel, son of Álvaro Gonçalves, as long as he married with one of the daughters of Afonso Miguéis, and from there on the succession should always continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir.
