Will

Will made by Manuel Mendes Tavares in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of a chapel with a perpetual obligation of six masses celebrated every year in the church of S. Francisco's convent, in Portalegre, where his body should be buried. He named his wife Catarina Lopes as first administrator of the entail, and his nephew Manuel da Rosa after her death. After the death of Manuel the administration should be handled to his brother Domingos Romba Tavares and from there on the succession should be handled to his eldest male sons and grandsons only. After the death of his eldest grandson the succession should not continue on his descendants, but would be handled to the closest relative with the same conditions.
