Will

Will of Maria de Faria ordering, among other dispositions, the foundation of a chapel with a perpetual obligation of five yearly masses preached in the convent of S. Francisco, in Terceira island, naming her husband, Tomé Álvares do Couto to be the first administrator and their daughter after him, and after her the chapel should be administrated by the eldest heir, preferably male. If in anyway the bloodline was extinguished, the administration should be given to the Confraria de Nossa Senhora da Conceição of the same convent.

Faria, Maria de (flor.1599)
