Descent by Purchaser Rule in Newbald Case
The ruling applies the Descent Act to trace inheritance from the purchaser, not the last possessor, in a dispute over Newbald property. George Newbald the elder is deemed the purchaser, with his lineal heirs failing to prove heirship, so the defendant remains in possession. The decision notes the act’s intent to limit the chain of descent to the purchaser when inheritance is shown.
