Will

Will by which Domingos Gonçalves establishes an entail, incorporating in it the third part of his assets, with the pious obligation of a daily mass celebrated in the church of the convent of S. Domingos of Lisboa. Since his wife, Isabel Correia de Mesquita, was pregnant, he appoints their unborn child as his heir. She would be the child's tutor during his/her childhood. If the heir died before birth, Domingos Gonçalves' parents would inherit his assets and assure that the pious charges were duly fulfilled. He chooses to be buried in the church of the said convent. Followed by an approval deed issued on 1661-08-11.

Gonçalves, Domingos (d.1661)

Contract and bond deed

Contract and bond deed between Isabel Correia de Mesquita da Fonseca, Domingos Gonçalves' widow, and the friars of the convent of S. Domingos of Lisboa, through which the former commits herself to pay, each year, 30 000 réis to them, in exchange for the fulfillment of the pious charges instituted by her deceased husband, a daily mass celebrated in his honor. The amount of money aforementioned was going to be extracted from the revenues of a farmstead (quinta) located in Turcifal, in the outskirts of Torres Vedras. Isabel inherited her husband's assets due to the fact that their son died prematurely.
