Will

Will of Cecília Francisco. She orders her body to be buried in the church of Santiago da Cividade, in front of the altar of Nossa Senhora do Rosário, where her parents and siblings were interred. As a single woman with no forced heirs, she was free to dispose of her possessions. Her intention was to entail her estates in Braga and its outskirts in a chapel. The chapel had the perpetual obligation of celebrating 53 masses a year, 47 in the church of Santiago da Cividade and six in the altar of São Pedro in Braga Cathedral. The first administrator of the entail was to be her nephew, Francisco da Costa, who was to be succeeded by his next of kin. Cecília's will was to be recorded in the "Livro das Capelas" of the Juízo dos Resíduos and in the "Tábua" of the Church of Santiago.

Francisca, Cecília (flor.1601)
