Entail foundation deed

Entail foundation deed by Cristóvão de Brito, member of the king's council. Cristóvão justifies the institution of the "morgado" as a way to prevent the scattering of the estates and to preserve his memory, allowing for better service to God and the kingdom and greater honour to the noble houses. The instituor decided to entail interest in the "alfândega" of Lisbon, his houses in Lisbon, located in the parish of S. Lourenço, and a farmstead in Ribatejo, leaving instructions for the acquisition of other properties to be included in the entail. The income from the properties would also support two daily and perpetual masses to be celebrated in the chapel of Nossa Senhora da Assunção, to be located in the church of the convent of Madre de Deus de Lisboa, which was under construction, and for which he had already purchased liturgical furnishings, such as a retable of "Nossa Senhora". The first administrator would be his nephew João de Brito, son of Lopo de Brito. An inventory of the assets was to be drawn up, with three copies: one for the administrator and the other two to be kept at the S. Elói Monastery in Lisbon and at the Hospital of Todos-os-Santos. His successors were also obliged to entail more property. The succession would pass through the first-born sons, excluding illegitimate children and clerics. The presumptive heir was not allowed to marry without the consent of his parents, under the penalty of being removed from the succession. In addition, each administrator had to be physically and mentally fit, to be loyal to the Church and to the Crown, and to use the name and the coat of arms of the Britos.

Entail foundation deed

Entail foundation deed by Luís Álvares de Madureira, fidalgo da casa do rei, his wife and first-cousin Joana de Madureira, and his aunt Isabel de Madureira. Together they decided to establish an entail, using their farmstead of Freixo, in Guilhabreu, as the head of the entail. They decided to create the entail in order to avoid the division of the estates and the dilution of the memory of the lineage, arguing that the concentration of the inheritance in one institution, managed by the first-born, was also a way of supporting the other relatives. At that time, the couple had no children and decided that in the absence of descendants, the surviving member of the couple had the power to appoint the successor. However, the administrator of the entail should primarly be the first-born son, excluding clerics and those who commited lese-majeste crimes. The administrators were also required to entail other lands and to use the Madureira name and coat of arms. An inventory of the entail was to be made, with three copies: one to be kept by the administrator, and the others to be kept in the Municipality of Porto and in the Cathedral.

Amaral, Francisco Dias de (flor.1575)

Will (extract)

Will (extract) by which Manuel Malheiro expresses his wish to be buried next to his first wife, D. Isabel Fernandes, and to his second wife, D. Maria Malheiro de Melo, his niece, in the chapels of Santo António and Nossa Senhora da Conceição of the cathedral of Lisboa. He confirms the institution of an entail which he had established with his first wife in a previous will, entailing to it all his properties in Azambuja, Lisboa and Corroios. He appoints as his heir António Malheiro, his second son from his second marriage, since his first born son from this marriage, José Malheiro de Melo, had died during the writing of the will. His son shall marry one of his cousins, daughter of Gaspar Malheiro, Manuel Malheiro's brother. He establishes an obligation of two daily masses for his own soul and the souls of his two wives. He also explains that he received the two chapels he now possesses from the deão António or Afonso Furtado de Mendonça, who had donated them under the condition that he should build him a tomb in the chapel of Nossa Senhora da Conceição and order a weekly mass for his soul.
