Parcener

parcener [Anglo-French, from Old French parÇonier, from parÇon] : coparcener ...

Presentation, the offering by the patron of a benefice to the ordinary of a person to be instituted to the benefice. It must be in writing (29 Car. 2, c. 3), and is in the nature of letters-missive to the ordinary.The sovereign, as protector ecclesi', is the patron paramount of all benefices which do not belong to other patrons, and usually presents by letters-patent (26 Hen. 8, c. 1; 1 Eliz. c. 1).As to other patrons, the right of presentation is sometimes confounded with that of nomination; but presentation is the offering a person to the bishop, while nomination is the offering such a person to the patron. These two rights may co-exist in different persons; thus where an advowson is vested in trustees or mortgagees they have the right of presentation, while the right of nomination is in the cestui que trust, or mortgagors, but the trustees or the mortgagee must judge of the qualification of the nominee, Mirehouse on Advowsons, 136.A bishop has, by Canon 95 (which abridged the period...

Coparceners or parceners

Coparceners or parceners. The name given to persons who until 1926 inherited an inheritable estate by virtue of descents from the ancestor which conferred on them all an equal title to it. It arose by act of law only, i.e., by descent, which, in relation to this subject was of two kinds:-(1) Descent by the common law, which took place where an ancestor died intestate, leaving two or more females as his co-heiresses; these, according to the canon of real property inheritance, all took together as coparceners or parceners, the law of primogeniture not obtaining among women in equal relationship to their ancestor: they were, however, deemed to be one heir; and (2) descent by particular custom, as in the case of gavelkind lands, which descended to all the males in equal degree, as the sons, brothers, or uncles of the deceased intestate ancestor; in default of sons, they descended to all the daughters equally.Coparceners had a unity though not an entirety, or necessarily an equality, of int...

Heir

Heir [fr. heire, Old Fr.; h'res, Lat.], a person who succeeds by descent to an estate of inheritance. It is nomen collectivum, and extends to all heirs; and under heirs, the heirs of heirs are comprehended in infinitum.A person who, under the laws of intestacy, is entitled to receive an intestate decedents property, esp. real property, Black's Law Dictionary, 7th Edn., p. 727.The (English) Admin. Of Estates Act, 1925, s. 45, having abolished all modes of descent of real property obtaining before 1st January, 1926, in regard to deaths taking place after 1925, except in a few cases (see DESCENT and DEVOLUTION), the importance of the 'heir' had diminished but the following note has been retained since the word 'heir' will be construed according to its meaning under the general law in force before 1926, in deeds and wills executed after 1925, under which the 'heir' may become entitled to an equitable interest in personality and realty corresponding to a real estate by purchase under the ol...
