Will

Will made by Jorge Luís Teixeira and his wife Leonor Álvares, in which they ordered, among other dispositions, the foundation of an entail in Vila da Praia, Terceira island, with a perpetual obligation of two masses celebrated in Espírito Santo and All Soul's day, the administrator should also pay two moios of wheat to the Misericórdia of Vila da Praia for an yearly perpetual mass celebrated in the Visitation day. They named one another as administrator of the entail, and after the death of both they named their son Manuel Teixeira, or to his sisters Margarida Teixeira, or Leonor Teixeira if he died. If Manuel became a clergyman he would only have the administration during his lifetime, passing it to one of his sisters and their first born heirs after them.
