Filho, Francisco Lopes (flor.1689)

Will

Will made by Catarina Mendes, in which she ordered the foundation of an entail and chapel with a perpetual obligation of two masses celebrated every year on the church of S. Pedro of Algalé, in Monforte, where her body should be buried. A vault should be placed over her grave, where her husband António Pereira Paviano should also be buried. To administrate it she named her husband during his lifetime, with the condition that he would make an inventory of all the assets of this chapel within three months, and, after his death, she named her sister Beatriz Mendes during her lifetime. After the death of Beatriz, the administration would be handled to Maria Desquila, niece of the institutor, and after her death, even that she had children, the administration would be transmitted to Catarina Mendes, also niece of the institutor. From there on the succession should always continue on the closest relative of her father's lineage.

Mendes, Catarina (flor.1629)
