Will

Will made by Baltasar Afonso, in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail with a perpetual mass obligation of a chapel of masses celebrated every week, always on fridays, in the mother church of S. Sebastião, in Ponta Delgada. He named his wife Bárbara de Benevides as first administrator of the entail and his niece Maria after her death, with the condition that Maria would marry, and from there on the succession should continue, preferably, on her eldest male heir. If Maria died before wedding or without children the administration should be transmitted to her brothers Belchior or Pedro, with the same conditions.

Afonso, Baltasar (flor.1559)
