Will

Will made by Gonçalo Caldeira de Castelo Branco in which he expresses his wish to be buried in the cathedral of Portalegre. He appointed his brother João da Fonseca Castelo Branco to succeed him on the administration of the chapel founded by Francisco Caldeira de Castelo Branco, composed of the estate of João Vaqueiro in Monforte and ordered the foundation of an entail composed of an estate in Covões over which he imposed a perpetual pious obligation of two masses celebrated every year. To administrate it he named his wife Catarina Velez da Mota as first administrator during her lifetime, and, after her death, the administration would be handed to his brother João da Fonseca Castelo Branco, and from there on the succession should always continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. In case of extinction of his lineage, the administration would be handled to the Misericórdia, that would also be obliged to marry an orphan girl every year.

Castelo Branco, Gonçalo Caldeira (d.1686)
