Will

Will made in Nisa by Álvaro Semedo in which he ordered the foundation of an entail with a perpetual pious obligation of 90 masses celebrated every year. The institutor named his nephew João de Semedo as first administrator during his lifetime and, after his death, the succession should continue, preferably, on the eldest male heir. To preserve the memory of the institutor, all administrators should use the surname "Semedo" or otherwise lose the administration. The first administrator should also order the production of a book to register the inventory of all entailed properties, and this book should be signed with all pages rubricated by the Juiz Ordinário of Nisa or by the Juiz dos Órfãos in case he was unlettered.

Semedo, Álvaro (flor.1572)
