Will

Will made by Francisco Fernandes and his wife Maria Fernandes, in which they ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of one masse celebrated every week in the church of S. Pedro, in Ponta Delgada, where their bodies should be buried. They named one another as first administrator of the entail, and after both of them were deceased, they named their son João Fernandes, with the faculty to appoint one of his male heirs, and from this heir on the succession should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. They also donated one bed to the Hospital of the Misericórdia, that should be sustained every year by the administrator of the entail with a perpetual rent worth 600 réis a year. If João died without heirs, the administration should be given to their son-in-law António Mendes, married with Isabel Fernandes, their daughter, with the exact same conditions.
