I've found a potential record, but I'm having a bit of trouble understanding its significance. Is it a will? Is this just governmental registration? It's quite faded, which makes things all the more difficult. Any help is very appreciated!

Yes, it is the registration with a notary of a "testament" (will).

What specific information would you like to have?

It is the will of married couple Lambert Lucas and Christina van Efterik, married in Amsterdam, 1753

As beneficiaries are named the two children from his first marriage (to Jacoba Nieuwenbeek): Maria and Evert, and his granddaughter Agnita Outhof (only child of the deceased Hendrina, also from his first marriage)

Thank you for the star, Joop!
Thank you, Jan! I really appreciate it!
