On my other wee blog is a new post looking at a series of records concerning Ultimus Haeres cases, where unclaimed estate after a person's death in Scotland fell to the Crown as the 'ultimus haeres' or 'last heir'. The post is available at http://walkingineternity.blogspot.co.uk/2014/08/the-last-heir-ultimus-haeres-records.html.
