Will

Will by which João Afonso de Azambuja, Arcebispo de Lisboa, bequeaths his assets in Azambuja to Afonso, Gonçalo Eanes and Catarina Afonso's son, and his properties in Vale do Paraíso and Aveiras de Fundo to Diogo, Afonso's brother, obligating both to maintain a chaplain in the church of Azambuja, who would celebrate annual masses for their grandparents and great-grandparents' souls. After the death of one of them, the surviving brother would administrate the entail before passing it to his eldest son.
The testator appoints Álvaro Afonso, Deão de Coimbra, his nephew, to be the next administrator of the chapel established by João Esteves, his uncle. If Álvaro, Pedro Francisco de Távora and Beatriz Eanes' son, decides to marry, he should inherit the entail and transmit it to his descendants. Followed by an approval deed issued on 1409-04-23.

Azambuja, João Afonso de (flor.1409)
