You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Bartolomeu Perestrello''' (((IPA-pt|baɾtuluˈmew pɨɾɨʃˈtɾelu)), in [[Italian language|Italian]] ''Bartolomeo Perestrello''), 1st [[Captain-major|Capitão Donatário]], [[Lord]] and [[Governor]] of the Island of [[Porto Santo]] (((circa)) 1395 – 1457) was a [[Portugal|Portuguese]] navigator and explorer that is claimed to have discovered and populated [[Porto Santo Island]] (1419) together with [[João Gonçalves Zarco]] and [[Tristão Vaz Teixeira]].<ref>((cite book| url=http://www.buratto.net/doria/CostaDoria.pdf | quote=Bartolomeu Perestrello, descobridor em 1419 da ilha de Porto Santo | language= Portuguese | first= Francisco Antonio | last = Doria | title= De Gênova ao Brasil, I | year=2002))</ref> The account of his participation in the discovery is disputed by some historians.((Citation needed|date=September 2011))

== Biography ==
He was a son of ''Micer'' [[Filippo Pallastrelli]] (called Filipe Perestrello in Portugal), a [[Lombardy|Lombard]] [[knight]] who came to Portugal some say erroneously in the train of Queen [[Eleanor of Aragon, Queen of Portugal|Leonor of Aragon]] and here he was a Nobleman of [[John I of Portugal]], who recognized his [[Coat of Arms]] and made him a Nobleman of Coat of Arms in 1433; he was married to Caterina Visconti (of the Visconti of [[Verona]] not from the ones of [[Milan]]), with whom he came to Portugal in 1385, and granted, in 1437, two houses at the Sub-Ripas Street in the City of [[Coimbra]]. He was the son of ''Micer'' Gabriele Pallastrelli, a [[Lombardy|Lombard]] [[nobleman]] from [[Piacenza]], and second wife Bertolina Bracciforti.
Nobleman and [[Fidalgo]]-[[Esquire]] of the House of [[Infante João, Lord of Reguengos]] and master of the Portuguese [[Order of Saint James of the Sword|Order of Saint James]] (Santiago), he was granted in 1446, as a hereditary fief (capitania), the island of [[Porto Santo Island|Porto Santo]] and, together with his fellow fleet commanders, started the colonization of the islands.

One of his daughters, [[Filipa Moniz Perestrelo]] (born c. 1455), around 1479 married [[Christopher Columbus]],<ref>((cite book| last=de Madariaga | first=Salvador | quote=Y así Christovão Colombo casó con Filipa Moniz Perestrello.| title=Vida del muy magnífico señor Don Cristóbal Colón | publisher= Editorial Hermes | year=1952 | edition=5th| location=Mexico | language=Spanish |page=125 | author-link=Salvador de Madariaga))</ref> who lived in [[Madeira]] and [[Porto Santo]].

A legend attributes the responsibility for the poor vegetation of Porto Santo to him. On his first disembarkation in the island he brought one pregnant doe-[[rabbit]] that escaped and its progeny overran the island in a few years. In fact, the island was poor in water, and what seemed to be a good enterprise for him became the cause of his family financial ruin.

== Family ==

He married four times, firstly to Margarida Martins, without known issue, secondly with Branca Dias, fathering Branca Dias Perestrello, lady-in-waiting to [[Eleanor of Aragon, Queen of Portugal]], and [[Mistress (lover)|mistress]] of Dom Pedro de Noronha (Castle of [[Gijón]], 1379 – August 20, 1452), 4th [[Archbishop of Lisbon]] (1424–1452), by whom she had issue, including D. Pedro de Noronha, Lord Chamberlain to King [[John II of Portugal]]. Thirdly in 1446 to Brites Furtado de Mendonça, (aunt of King John II's mistress [[Ana de Mendonça]]) and had issue including Izeu Perestrelo, wife of Pedro Correia, First Captain of [[Graciosa]] Island in the [[Azores]] and one of King John II's twenty-five bodyguards. His fourth marriage to Isabel Moniz also had issue, including Filipa, one of the 12 ''Comendadoras'' of Santiago, who married Columbus, Violante who married Miguel Molyarte and lived in Seville, Spain and Bartolomeu Perestrelo II, Third Captain of Porto Santo.

He was the brother of Rafael Perestrello, head of the Perestrellos of [[Torres Vedras]]. He also had two sisters: Catarina Perestrello, married to Aires Anes de Beja, ''Escrivão da Puridade'' (a [[Secretary]]) of [[John I of Portugal]].
