Will

Will by wich Afonso Dias Bordalo, familiar do Santo Ofício da Inquisição de Évora, and his wife Maria Fernandes Vidal, express their wish to be buried in the church of S. João of Castelo de Vide. They establish an entail composed of their farmstead in front of the hermitage of Nossa Senhora da Luz and a tapada, with a perpetual obligation of ten masses celebrated every year. The institutors named their son Mnauel Dias Vidal as first administrator during his lifetime and, after his death, he would be succeeded by his brother Diogo Dias Vidal, who would appoint one of his children to succeed him, and from there on the succession should continue by appointment. No administrator could ever marry with a person of the so-called "infected races", nor commit lese-majesty crimes, or, otherwise, woud lose the administration.

Bordalo, Afonso Dias (d.1691)
