1556. Carta de João Velho Galvão para Fernão Pires da Nóbrega, deão da Sé.

Author(s)	João Velho Galvão
Addressee(s)	Fernão Pires da Nóbrega
In English	Private letter from João Velho Galvão to Fernão Pires da Nóbrega, dean of the cathedral. The author tells the recipient about various situations occurred in Brasil. João Velho Galvão was a resident in Salvador de Bahia, where he married Jerónima de Góis, one of the orphans sent to Brazil by the King João III, as a part of the royal policy of associating marriages and colonization. These marriages were usually encouraged by the granting of administrative positions, something that happened to João Velho Galvão, who in 1557 was appointed as the clerk of Salvador warehouse. This is one of the letters in the collection "Corpo Cronológico", a documental fund under the custody of the National Archive of Torre do Tombo. It is a collection composed mostly by documentation of judicial and administrative nature, from 1161 to 1696. After the earthquake of 1755 many scattered documents were incorporated in this fund. Just like the name suggests, the main criterion of organization within the Corpo Cronológico is the documents' date. If there is no translation for the letter itself, you may copy the text (while using the view 'Standardization') and paste it to an automatic translator of your choice.
