Will

Will by Beatriz Mendes de Canales in which she expressed her wish to be buried in the cathedral of Portalegre and ordered the foundation of an entail composed of a watermill in Ribeira de Nisa and farmlands, with a perpetual obligation of three masses celebrated every year. The institutor named her son João Lisboa as first administrator during his lifetime and, after his death, the succession should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. All administrators were obliged to annex their own reserved portion to the entail and could never marry with a person of the so-called "infected races".

Canales, Beatriz Mendes de (d.1622)
