Although a lot of definitions of all kinds are on the Internet, many of us are old-fashioned and prefer books. One of the ones I like--and is available where I do much of my research--is Black's Law Dictionary. Most public libraries also have a copy. That's where one can find definitions to older terms found in legal documents executed by our ancestors and/or the courts! One noted genealogist-lecturer said her husband gave her a Black's Law Dictionary for Christmas, and she treasures it and has learned a lot from it. Does anyone know whether a legal dictionary is on the internet? E.W.Wallace southern California
