Will

Will made by Maria Velez in which she ordered the foundation of two entails.

This entail would be composed of several properties in Portalegre with a perpetual mass obligation of a daily mass as long as the world lasted, and would be administrated by her nephew Manuel Vaz Delicado with the condition that he would ordain himself a priest, and after his death he should handle the administration of the entail to her niece Ana Velez. After the death of Ana, the succession should always continue on the eldest male heir.

The other entail would be composed of some houses in Boa Vista and other rural properties in Portalegre, with a perpetual mass obligation of four masses celebrated on the octave of Christmas and one more by easter. She named her nephew Manuel Vaz with the condition that he would appoint his successor, with the same conditions.
