Scope and content

Will by which D. Catarina de Brito, widow of doutor Rui Gago, revokes her part of the will chart she had previously made with her husband, in 1560-07-29. She expresses her wish to be buried in the chapel of Santíssimo Sacramento of the cathedral of Lisboa, in her husband's grave, with the obligation of a daily mass for her and her husband's soul, half to be paid with her properties, and half to be paid with the properties of her husband's entail. She entails her assets in Lisboa, Évora, Alcáçovas and Elvas, which she detaches from her husband's entail, and appoints D. Catarina, their niece, daughter of Estêvão Gago and D. Guiomar de Brito, as her heir. She also entails her jewelry, which D. Catarina shall use for her wedding, as well as her successors. If D. Catarina dies without children, the entail shall be inherited by Rui de Brito, son of her nephew, Fernando Lobo de Brito. She also establishes two other entails, with "foros" in Elvas, which she bequeaths to her nephews: Fernando Lobo de Brito and Afonso de Brito.
