Opening deed of the will made by Francisco Martins and his wife Francisca Fernandes, in which they ordered the foundation of an entail.

Will made by Francisco Martins, soldado, and his wife Francisca Fernandes, in which they express their wish to be buried, respectively, in the churches of the Misericórdia and of Espírito Santo of Portalegre. They establish an entail with a perpetual obligation of 20 annual masses in their burial places. They name one another as first administrators of the entail after the first one passed away, and, after their deaths, the entail would be administered by their daughter Ana Leitão and her descendants after her. If she had no children, the administration would be handed to their son Martinho Vaz. The Provedor should take account on the administration every year and if the administrators failed on the fullfillment of the pious legacies for three years, they would be deprived of the administration, that should be henceforth handed to the Misericórdia.
