Will

Will made by Tomás Fernandes Meira in which he ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail composed of a land in the outskirts of Arronches. He named his nephew padre António Meira as administrator of the entail during his lifetime, and his sister Maria Vaz after his death, and from there on the succession should continue, preferably, on the closest relative on the lineage of the institutor's father, except for the sons and heirs of Francisco Gonçalves. All administrators would have the sole obligation of ordering the celebration of 150 masses on the first year of their administration, benefiting from the income derived from this entailed land during the rest of their lifetimes.

Meira, Tomás Fernandes (flor.1644)
