Will

Will made by Isabel Rodrigues, in which she ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of two entails. The first entail would be administrated by her nephew Álvaro, son of Manuel Rodrigues, and his descendants after him and would have a perpetual mass obligation of ten masses celebrated every year in the church of the convent of Nossa Senhora da Luz, in Arronches, where her body should be buried. This second entail, composed of a rent of wheat in Besteirinha, outskirts of Arronches, would be administrated by padre Manuel Martins during his lifetime with the condition that he would celebrate three hundred masses for the soul of the institutor. Before his death he would appoint a successor who would administrate the entail with a perpetual mass obligation of thirty masses as long as the world lasted. The succession should always continue by appointment.

Rodrigues, Isabel (d.1631)
