Approval deed of a will

Approval deed of the will made in Portalegre by Manuel da Rosa and his wife Maria Gonçalves, in which they ordered the foundation of an entail.

Rosa, Manuel da (d.1682)

Will

Will by which Manuel da Rosa expressed his wish to be buried in the chapel of the Terceiros in the convent of S. Francisco of Portalegre and established an entail with a perpetual pious obligation of five masses celebrated every year. He named his wife Maria Gonçalves to administrate the entail during her lifetime with the condition that, before her death, she would entail all the assets of her reserved portion and increase the pious obligation from five to ten masses celebrated every year. After her death the entail would be administrated by their grandson Manuel, and from there on the succession should always continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. If Manuel had no children, the administration would be handled to Domingos, grandson of the institutors, and his descendants with the same conditions, or the granddaughter Teresa.
