Will (extract)

Will (extract) made by Isabel Correia Tavares, in which she ordered the foundation of a chapel composed of a farm named Fragoso and twenty five enslaved persons, over which she imposed a perpetual pious obligation of six sung masses every year.She named Pedro Fernandes Alfange and his wife Isabel Correia as first administrators during their lifetimes, and, after their deaths, they would be succeeded by their eldest heir, male or female. If they died without children, the administration would be handled to Maria Tavares with the same condition. The institutor disposed that if any of the entailed slaves died, they should be replaced for another one, in order to always maintain twenty five serving on the chapel.

Tavares, Isabel Correia (d.1611)
