Vicente de Fora's monastery, in which Duarte de Almeida de Novais gave 300.000 réis to the monastery in return for a grave with it's tombstone inside the monastery.

Documents produced by the entail.

Will made by Duarte de Almeida Novais and his wife Joana Mariz in which they ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual pious obligation of ten masses celebrated every year, being seven in Castelo de Vide and three in São Pedro do Sul. They named their daughter Maria de Almeida as first administrator during her lifetime and, after her death, she would be succeeded by her second-born son, since the first born would succeed on the entail founded by the father of Duarte de Almeida Novais, and from there on the succession should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. The institutors disposed that every administrator of the entail was obliged to annex a lease worth 6 alqueires of wheat after the seventh year of their administration.
