ESCOBAR QUEVEDO, RICARDO. A Crypto-Jewish Family from the Portuguese Countryside in front of an Inquisitorial Visit. São Vicente da Beira, June of 1579. Front. hist. [online]. 2020, vol.25, n.2, pp.8-34. ISSN 2027-4688.  https://doi.org/10.22380/20274688.946.

The relative tranquil life led by the Judaizers of the District of Castelo Branco ended in the spring of 1579 with the arrival of the Inquisitor Marcos Teixeira, who urged the inhabitants to denounce heretics. Consequently, the inquisitorial repression of heretics was relentless and the prisoners and dead will number hundreds; many sought refuge in Seville and the New World. We will observe the Judaizer practices through testimonies collected by the Inquisitor and the judicial consequences of the Visit.
