Will

Will of Álvaro Ferreira de Mendonça. The testator declares his wish to be interred in the monastery of S. Frutuoso, in the place where his grandfather, Aires Ferreira, was buried. He mentions that, together with his wife Isabel Coelho, he had previously built the chapel of Nossa Senhora do Outeiro, located in his Outeiro estate, in which perpetual masses were to be celebrated. It was Álvaro Ferreira de Mendonça's wish that after his death and that of his wife, his property should be incorporated into the "Morgado e Casa dos Ferreira", which belonged to his father. Isabel Ferreira would be the administrator after Álvaro's death. The couple had no children, so Isabel had the power to appoint her successor.

Will

Will of Simoa de Vasconcelos, aunt of Isabel Coelho, by which she appoints her niece as her heir, leaving her the estate of Outeiro, with the obligation of masses for her soul in the church of Misericórdia, in Braga, where she should also be buried. Next to her grave should also be placed a sign with the indication of the masses that have to be celebrated.
