Will

Will by which Padre Diogo Gonçalves Bravo bequeathed moveable assets, the houses where he lived, lands ("ferragiais") in Vale Mimoso, two olive groves and a sumac plantation to his nephew, Pedro Martins, obligating him and his heirs to celebrate 5 annual masses for his soul. He also left other moveable assets, lands ("ferragiais"), olive groves and sumac plantations in Olivença to his nephews, Vasco and Paulo Cabeça, with the obligation of celebrating 5 annual masses; and donated 2 olive groves and houses to Elvira Gonçalves and her children with the same pious obligation.
At last, he established an entail with all of his remaining estate, including lands, olive groves and a rent in Olivença ("ferragial de S. Pedro", "ferragial do Ribeiro da Figueira", "terras da Marranota", "olivais do Espinhaço", "foro na Herdade dos Arrifes"), which would be administrated by his niece, Ana Martins, if she returned to the village. In her absence, it would be transmitted to Maria Restolha, his other niece, or inherited by one of her brothers. If neither of them left descendants, it would be administrated by the Santa Casa da Misericórdia of Olivença, which would be responsible for distributing half of the properties' revenues for the institutor's relatives, using the other half to help those in need and celebrating 33 annual masses for his soul.
The institutor also stated that if Pedro Martins, Vasco Cabeça, Paulo Cabeça and Elvira Fernandes left no heirs, all of the properties he had left them would be incorporated in that entail.
The testator's body would be buried in the church of Santa Maria Madalena of Olivença, inside the chapel of Nossa Senhora da Conceição, where his sister lied.

Will

Will by which Francisco Ferreira Furtado, Fidalgo da Casa do Rei, established an entail with the third part of his assets, including his farmstead in Barcelos ("quinta de Argemil"), and asked his wife, D. Antónia de Sousa, to administrate it until their son, Rui Ferreira Furtado, reached the appropriate age. The entail's future administrators were obligated to support the celebration of an annual mass for the institutor's soul in the hermitage of Santo António, which he had erected in that farmstead. Although his father had declared that the farmstead was part of an entail that was transmitted to him by his ancestors, the testator was not certain if that was the case. Therefore, he decided to found the entail. If its institution was discovered in the meantime, his will would only serve as its confirmation. He determined that his body would be buried in that hermitage. Followed by an approval deed issued on 1596-02-16.
