Leonor de Mascareñas

Leonor de Mascareñas (died 1583), was a Portuguese courtier.

Father Jorge Pires de Figueiroa was the first rector of Souto.

He was one of the private chaplains of Doña María de Aragón, [1] second wife of King Manuel I of Portugal.

After the death of the King Manuel I, he entered the service of his daughter, the Infanta Isabel de Portugal, wife of Emperor Carlos V, and joined the entourage that accompanied her when she left for Castile in 1525.

Isabella of Portugal died very young and Father Jorge Pires de Figueiroa, having fulfilled his mission in the imperial court, returned to his country of origin, obtaining the service in the Parish of Souto, highly coveted at that time.
