Opening deed of the will made by the deceased Maria Curvo Barradas, in which she ordered the foundation of an entail.

Will by which Maria Curvo Barradas, António Zuzarte's wife, expresses her wish to be buried in the Misericórdia of Monforte, near her uncle and sister. She establishes an entail with a perpetual obligation of thirty masses celebrated every year. She names her sisters Inês dos Serafins and Catarina da Encarnação, both of them nuns, as first administrators during their lifetimes and, after their deaths, one of the institutor's children or grandchildren. If she had no children or grandchildren, then the administration would be handed, in this order, to her husband António Zuzarte, her sisters Inês dos Serafins and Catarina da Encarnação, her nephew Diogo Barradas and from there on the succession should always continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. If Diogo had no children, the administration would be handed to his sister Leonor Barradas de Veiros, or their aunt Maria Curvo, or to other relatives. If her lineage became extinguished, the administration would be transmitted to the Misericórdia of Monforte. The institutor disposed that the will should be registered in the Tombo of the Misericórdia.
