Will chart by which Luís da Cunha de Ataíde e Melo, do Conselho do Rei, expresses his wish to be buried in his chapel in the chancel of the church of Santo António dos Capuchos of Lisboa, where his wife is buried. He asks his brother, the conde de Pontével, to be tutor of his minor son, Tristão da Cunha. He declares that his wife, D. Guiomar de Lencastre, had bequeathed her son the entail of Fernando da Silveira, who had appointed as his heir Guiomar da Cunha, grandmother of his wife. Guiomar da Cunha had appointed her son, D. Álvaro de Abranches, as next administrator, and D. Álvaro had appointed his daughter, D. Guiomar de Lencastre, as administrator after him. Tristão da Cunha shall appoint his eldest son as the next administrator.
