Will

Will made by Maria Fernandes, nicknamed "a Grila", in which she ordered to be buried in the Mother Church of Amieira. She founded three entails, one for her nephew João Aires, a second for her niece Isabel Dias, and the third for her nephew Manuel Martins da Cruz, respectively with perpetual pious obligations of five, four and twenty masses celebrated every year as long as the world lasted. The first two entails are composed of houses, vineyards and olive groves in Amieira, and the last one is composed of movable and immovable goods. Each one of those first appointed administrators would be succeeded by a son or daughter of their own choice, or by a close relative if they have none, and from there on the succession should always continue through appointment.

Fernandes, Maria (d.1678)
