Biographical history
Probate (also called proving a will) is the process of establishing the validity of a will, which was recorded in the grant of probate.
A mortgage by demise was the most common form of early mortgage in which the land acting as security was transferred to the mortgage by a perpetual lease for a term such as 500 or 1,000 years. On redemption the land was transferred back to the mortgagor (the party borrowing money) and the remaining term of years assigned to a trustee
