Mistranslation of "Morgado"
The title of Antonio Botelho Mourão, 3rd Morgado of Mateus is mistranslated as "Count". In fact, the first Mourão of Mateus to have the title of count was the 6th Morgado, José Luís de Sousa Botelho Mourão e Vasconcelos. The title "Morgado" does not seem to have an exact translation in English. It refers to the eldest male in generation of a family. i.e. the patriarch, the heir to the family estate and any associated titles.
