Scope and content

Will by which Beatriz Soares, Diogo Fernandes' widow, appointed the officials of the brotherhood of Almas do Purgatório e Anjo S. Miguel to administrate the chapel she had established in the church of Nossa Senhora dos Mártires, to which she had entailed houses in Rua de Cata-que-farás, Lisboa.
The testator left 4 houses in that street to her cousin, Briolanja Godinho, Pedro Henriques' widow, and to her 3 daughters in order to help them getting married. If all of them died before marrying, all the properties would be transmitted to their mother. She bequeathed 2 houses in that street to Garcia Soares, her nephew; other houses to her niece, D. Maria; other houses to her nephew, Fernando Soares; a house in that street and an annual quantity of sugar ("100 arrobas") extracted from her sugarcane plantation in Ilha de S. Tomé to her cousin, Isabel Furtado; other houses to Gaspar Sineiros, her cousin; other houses to Leonor Álvares, her cousin, Licenciado Diogo Pinto's wife, and other houses to Elvira Rodrigues, Diogo Fernandes's wife.
She declared, at last, that every person to which she had left any assets were henceforth obligated to support the perpetual celebration of an annual sung mass in the church of Nossa Senhora dos Mártires, where her body would be buried alongside the remains of her son, João Álvares.
