Will (extract)

Will (extract) by which Maria Fernandes bequeathed houses in Lisboa to Antão de Oliveira, Secretário da Rainha D. Leonor, obligating him and his descendants to support the celebration of 2 annual masses for her soul in the church of S. Miguel of Alfama. After his death, the entail would be inherited by his son, Manuel de Oliveira, the institutor's godson, and transmitted through his generation.
The testator established another entail with houses in the parish of S. Miguel of that city, designating Mécia Fernandes, her criada, to administrate it. She obligated her and her successors to support the celebration of an annual mass on S. Martinho's day in that church and to light a candle every Holy Thursday. At the time of her death, Mécia Fernandes would pass the entail to her eldest son or daughter.

Fernandes, Maria (flor.1547)
