Judge Frederick C. Taylor. of the
Stamford Probate Court has just made
an order of distribution Oi
the proceeds of the sale or
an interest in a certain piece
of property in Noroton. on the Cove
Pond, to cell which it was necessary
to enlist the aid of the General All»
ielnbly.
The interest in question was that
wood by Mary Waterbury and Maria
Waterbury. of Noroton. The tract m
land was one time owned by three also
tern, daughters of the late Moses We
terbury, of Barium—Abigail. Mary and
Maria. They inherited the land from
their father. Abigail died before the
other sisters, leaving a will in which
she gave all her property to Jonathan
Waterbury, of Noroton, during his
life. and directed that. after hie death
‘~t be divided among his "lawful heirs.“
This will had the effect of tying or
the third interest in the tract below!
‘uv to Abigail during the life of Jon
athan. as it is. of course, impossible
to determine who the “lawful heirs" o4
ionathan are until his death. His chil-
dren will probably be his heirs. but. a
they may die before him, they may
not. Those entitled to . e remaindev
interest in the property are therefore
undetermined. and ca ot join with
Jonathan to convey i fee of the pro
nerty.
