Subrogation deed by which Garcia de Melo, husband of D. Isabel de Castro, monteiro-mor do Reino and presidente do Tribunal da Mesa da Consciência e Ordens, subrogates the money he gained from sale of Quinta do Grilo and the annulement of the public debt instrument, both previously entailed to the chapel of D. Maria da Cunha, condessa de Portalegre, for properties he bought in Lisboa, in Calçada do Combro and Cruz de Pau. He wasn't yet in possession of the entail of D. Maria da Cunha, but was the successor of the current administrator, his aunt, D. Guiomar da Silveira, as she hadn't married and had no other heirs. D. Guiomar da Silveira had inherited the entail from D. Guiomar Henriques, her aunt, and Tristão da Cunha, her father, nephew of D. Maria da Cunha and first administrator of the entail. Garcia de Melo's eldest son and successor, Francisco de Melo, is present and agrees to this subrogation.
Some of the properties bought by Garcia de Melo for the entail had previously belonged t the entail of Duarte de Albuquerque Coelho and Dona Joana de Castro, but had been subrogated for a public debt instrument in Estanco do Tabaco. The houses in Cruz do Pau had an obligation of masses for the soul of Cosme Fernandes da Silva in the church of Santa Catarina do Monte Sinai.
Preceded by petition by Garcia de Melo, requesting the subrogation.
