- Henrique Mitchell de Paiva Couceiro
Henrique Mitchell de Paiva Cabral Couceiro (Lisbon, São Mamede, December 30, 1861 - Lisbon, São Sebastião da Pedreira, February 11, 1944), son of a Portuguese father and an Irish mother, became known in Portuguese history for his military career in the campaigns to occupy Moçambique in the years following the English ultimatum and his attempt to overthrow the new Republic by leading two military incursions into Portuguese territory from Spain.
He served as the 89th Governor of Angola from 1907 to 1909. His devotion to the monarchist cause earned him several periods in exile both before and after the coming of the dictatorial New State of Antonio Salazar.
In exil, he became the "caudillo" of the emigrated royalists, who, with the discreet complacency of the government of Alfonso XIII in Madrid, armed themselves and concentrated in Galicia, just across the border from Chaves (see royalist attack on Chaves).
He married in Lisbon, Encarnação, November 21, 1896 D. Júlia Maria do Carmo de Noronha (Lisbon, Santa Isabel, March 17, 1873 - Oeiras, Santo Amaro, June 28, 1941), daughter and later only heiress of the 4th Counts de Paraty, by whom he had three daughters and two sons.
