Will

Will by which Catarina Chorra Caldeira, Jorge de Pina do Lago's wife, established a chapel with all her assets, including houses, lands in Sardoal ("terras do Chão de Gracia Dias, a tapada de Santana, a herdade do Ribeiro Davide") and objects made of gold and silver, designating her great-niece, Teresa Canseco Caldeira, Joana Caldeira and Pedro Gueifão's daughter, to administrate it. She was obligated to marry according to her parents' will and to transmit the entail to one of her children. All the chapel's administrators had to support the celebration of annual masses for the institutor's soul in the convent of Nossa Senhora da Caridade, where her body would be buried; to give 1 000 reais, each year, to the Provedor da Misericórdia, who would be responsible for assessing the chapel's state; to incorporate new properties in it. The testator also declared that her husband would inherit the farmstead (quinta) of Torre.

Caldeira, Catarina Chorra (d.1611)
