Perhaps if son Robert died or became mentally incapacitated and his parents
were the only heirs.  Just a hypothesis, not based on any legal knowledge.

Subject: Need help with 1772 Lunenburg Co VA Deed


Harold Cochran was kind enough to send the transcribed deed below to me.  I
would like to know under what legal circumstances can Robert Leverette and
wife, Ann, sell land they had given to son, Robert?

Thank you in advance for considering my query .
