BiographyEarly lifeManuel was the son of Rodrigo da Câmara and D. Maria Coutinho, dame in the court of Queen Elizabeth of Bourbon. He was 21 years old when he testified against his father in front of the Holy Office of the Inquisition, for alleged practices of sodomy and for supposed incestuous relations. These crimes, at the time, resulted in the forfeiture of family possessions and loss of honour at Corte: his father eventually died miserable conditions in the convent of Cape St. Vicent. The remainder of the family, consequently, suffered a period of financial chaos and became social outcasts at court. Manuel Luís married late, and remained with his mother at the convent where his father was incarcerated, until his father's death. DonatárioFollowing the death of the 3rd Count of Vila Franca, the Countess used her family's connections (the Counts of Vidigueira were descendents of Vasco da Gama) with the Royal family, to attempt to recover the possessions confiscated following the scandal of her ex-husband, and rehabilitate family honour.[1] She, therefore, sought from King Afonso VI to resuscitate the Captaincy and the incomes associated with this patronage.[1] By royal letter, dated 15 September 1662, the monarch named D. Manuel Luís Baltazar da Câmara, the first Count of Ribeira Grande, returning his familial interests and providing an inheritance for him and his descendents. Shortly later, on 28 September, the King re-instituted all the possessions confiscated from his father, including the Captaincy of São Miguel.[1] Later lifeManuel served in the Restoration Wars in the province of Alentejo, as master-of-camp in Setubal. The 1st Count of Ribeira Grande did not narrowly support the development of São Miguel, and was instrumental in the support of the Catholic church, donating funds to the Império dos Nobres on Faial, in order to fulfill a promise made to the Holy Spirit. In this intervention he promised to institutionalize the Cult of the Holy Spirit if God would provide him with a strong son: his son, José, would later inherit the Captaincy of São Migel. He was believed to have gone mad before dying.[1] ReferencesNotes1. ^1 2 3 Carlos Melo Bento (2008), p.52 Sources{{refbegin}}
