Scope and content
Will of Beatriz de Meneses, countess of Marialva and Loulé. Beatriz states that she and her late husband had a great devotion to the Order of St. Francis. For that reason, they determined to found a monastery dedicated to S. António, in their farmestead of S. António de Ferreirim, in which they would both be buried. The Countess declared that all her descendants and heirs had died and that she therefore had full power over her inheritance. She decided to declare the Infante D. Luís as her universal heir. At the same time, the testator decided to reserve rural properties and to incorporate them into a chapel to be instituted in the convent of S. António de Ferreirim. The first administrator of the chapel would be Francisco Gouveia, "criado" of her late husband. Succession would always occur by joint appointment of the judge of Lamego and the dean of the cathedral. If the last possessor of the entail had a male child, he could succeed, but this always depended on the will of the judge and the dean. According to Beatriz's wishes, the administrator could not be a "fidalgo", a rich or powerful person.
