Will

Will made by Bárbara Machado, in which she ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of ten masses celebrated every year in the chapel of S. Estêvão, located on the mother church of Angra, Terceira island, where her body should be buried. She named her children Serafina and Estêvão Borges to administrate the entail during their lifes, as long as each of them administrated it for two years. After both of them were deceased the entail should be administrated by the children of her daughter Catarina da Silveira, as long as they alternate on the administration in every two years. And if she had no children, the entail's administration should be given to the descendants of her son Francisco do Carvalhal with the same conditions. She disposed that the entail's administration could not be given, in any circumstances to the heirs of João Dias do Carvalhal, once he was very wealthy and all of his brothers were not. In case of the extinction of her bloodline, the entail should be given to her nephew Manuel do Rego Borges or the Misericórdia of Angra.
