Marcos Antonio Lopes Veiga, “A Inquisição e o Labirinto Marrano”: Cultura, Poder e Repressão na Galiza (sécs. XVI e XVII), master’s dissertation, Universidade de São Paulo, 2006. Appendix C, pp. 136–144, was visually checked. Its year headings date the relations, not necessarily individual events. Gaspar is on p. 137, María on p. 141 and Violante on p. 142. “Fees” is explicitly marked a difficult reading. The appendix gives no parents for the older Gaspar or sibling link to Felipe; the underlying manuscripts have not been inspected.
