Urraca et filliis meis Infantibus Dono Sancio et Dono Alphonso et Dona Eleonor” granted property “in Ansede” to “Gunsalvo Gomes homini meo” by charter dated Jun 1217.

The testament of “Alphonsus...Rex Portug. et Algarbii”, dated 23 Nov 1271, chose burial “in Monasterio Alcobaciæ”, appointed “Dono Dionysio meo filio” as his successor, made bequests to “D. Blancæ filiæ meæ...D. Sanciæ filiæ meæ...D. Alienor, quam habeo de Elvira Stephani...Egidio Alphonsi filio meo...Martini Alphonsi filio meo...Alphonso filio meo, quem nutrivit Martinus Petri clericus meus”, and appointed among the executors “Reginam Beatricem uxorem meam...”.
The Chronicon Conimbricensi records the death “XIV Kal Mai” in 1279 of “Dñs Alfonsus…Rex tertius Portugalis”. The Breve Chronicon Alcobacense records that "Rex Alfonsus…comes Bolonie" was buried "Alcobacie cum uxore sua". The Nobiliario of Pedro Conde de Barcelos records that "D.
