Exemplification of a will of Maria Pegado.

Documents produced by the entail.

Will by which Maria Pegado, João Pais' widow, bequeathed all her remaining assets to her nephew, Martinho Pegado, determining that he and his descendants had to support the celebration of an annual mass for her soul in the church of Salvador of Elvas, where her body would be buried. After his death, the entail would be transmitted to his son, António. The latter would be succeeded by one of his children or, if he died without leaving offspring, by an elder brother.
