[Malte] Notary records in geneanum

[stuart.stamp]

Write a message ...Hello everyone - I was recently told about your website and it has been a godsend and broken down quite a few family research barriers for me - so congratulations to all those who have set it up and contributed to it. I have been looking at the notary records and would appreciate it if someone could tell me what the abbreviations 'Her. Un.' and 'Her. Part' mean - usually followed by a name and I have seen it on many records in one or more of the 'note' columns.Also does a Testament entry mean that the first named person is dead or just that they have made a will?

Thanks in advance for your help

hello

Her Uni means = Unerversalis inheritor

or Heritiers Part : particularis

it does not mean that the donator is dead

when he is dead it is written : division des biens : which give the name of the inhéritors, if you ask for the document at the notarial archives in malta there might be several pages giving the complete détails
