Chancery record of a subrogation warrant to Maria Luísa Pereira de Meneses e Faria, administrator of Francisco Pereira de Miranda's entail, and D. Jorge Henriques, her son.

Entail and chapel foundation deed confirming a contract between Francisco Pereira de Miranda and his wife Guiomar de Miranda and the convent of S. Domingos of Porto. Jorge Pereira de Miranda, fidalgo da casa do rei, acted as his parents' attorney. The convent gave the couple its granary to build a chapel dedicated to Nossa Senhora da Assunção, with a direct door to the cloister; in return, the institutors had to build another granary. The administrators had the right to be buried and to place their coats of arms in the chapel.

Contract approved by Francisco Pereira de Miranda and Guiomar Pereira in 1580-11-26 (fls. 108v-110v).

Entail foundation deed by Francisco Pereira de Miranda and his wife Guiomar Pereira. The couple decided to use their "terças" to create a "morgado". The first administrator would be their son, Jorge Pereira de Miranda. The document contains extensive prescriptions on the construction of the profile of the administrator: it should preferably be the first-born son, excluding illegitimate children and clerics. They should be loyal subjects of the Crown, physically and mentally fit, and must use the name and coat of arms of the lineage. An inventory of the entail should be drawn up, with three copies: one for the administrator, one for the monastery in which the institutors are to be buried, and one for the Misericórdia of Porto.
