Will

Will by which Mem Afonso, Cavaleiro da Casa do Rei, bequeaths houses in Lisboa, lands (casal) in Carcavelos, vineyards in Arcas, Várzea das Freiras and lands (herdade) in Ponte Velha to his nephew, Diogo Machado, with the obligation of supporting the celebration of 20 annual masses in the church of Santa Maria do Funchal of Lisboa, where the testator's body should be buried. After his nephew's death, the entail would be transmitted to his eldest son.
He establishes another entail with houses in Ameixoeira, lands in Calhariz, Arcas and Ponte Velha, appointing Heitor Machado, his nephew, to be its first administrator. He and his descendants are henceforth obligated to celebrate 10 annual masses for the institutor's soul in that church.
The testator also leaves a house in Figueira, two olive groves and lands in Junqueira to Mendo, his former slave. After his death, the properties would be annexed to the entail administered by Heitor Machado.
