Re: Opinion Needed On Relationships Stated In A Deed


That'd be the presumption, I suspect. But might Eliza, et al., be
paternal aunt and uncles? Note that Henry, Junior, is one of the
minors; while it's not always the case that the first born male is/
was necessarily the namesake/junior, it is true often enough to lead
to the supposition that Eliza and the others are not sibs of the
named minors but sibs of the father.

Thanks for replying. I've given a more detailed response to another
reply, so you can check that for more details. What I've seen most
in that county (it's in North Carolina) is that 'juniors' are not
often the first-born son.

The age ranges between the older people in the deed and some of the
minors is such that they could be siblings, or half-siblings. But,
it's also possible that they are aunt/uncles, or maybe even a
mixture of siblings and aunt/uncles.

Thanks
