Talk:Baron North

Daughters
This article said (of the two sisters of the last Baron):
 * ''Neither has petitioned to terminate the abeyance; if they fail to do so by 2042 or they both die the title will almost certainly enter permanent abeyance as none of their daughters will meet the criteria to make a valid claim.

What is this supposed to mean? If a co-heiress of an abeyant title has several daughters, her share of the abeyant title is divided among them; but this just means more potential claimants to the tontine that is an abeyance. See Baron Strabolgi for one case. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 04:38, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
