Will

Will of Manuel Pacheco and his wife Margarida da Silva in which they ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail, composed of several properties in Terceira island, with masses celebrated in the chapel of Santíssimo Sacramento in Angra's cathedral, where their bodies should be buried as well as their descendants. They named their eldest son António Pacheco to be the first administrator and all of his brothers after him, and after the death of all of them the entail's administration should be transmitted to the eldest male son or grandson of António Pacheco, and their eldest descendants after them, preferring the male over the female. All administrators should bare the surname "Pacheco" and annex one third of their own reserved portions to the entail, or lose the administration. Illegitimate children and madcap were excluded from the administration.

Lima, Manuel Pacheco de (flor.1562)
