Will (extract)

Will (extract) of Domingos Martins and Catarina Vaz ordering, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of a weekly mass, naming her daughter Ana Vaz and the descendants appointed by her on her will. If she died without heirs, the administration should be transmitted to her brothers Francisco or André, and if none of them left descendants, the administration should be given to the Santa Casa de Misericórdia of Angra. They ordered that all the administrators should entail the third part of their own reserved portions to the entail. Any administrator who committed crimes of lese-majeste would loose the administration.
