(1) That quality or relationship which enables a person to take by descent ; (2) Persons connected by blood relationship, that is, by being descended from one or more common ancestors
One person is said to be of the whole blood to another when they are both descended from the same pair of ancestors, e.g., two brothers who have the same father and mother. Persons are said to be of the half blood to one another when they are descended from one common ancestor only, e.g., two brothers who have the same father but different mothers. Formerly, relations by the half blood were incapable of inheriting to one another, but this disability was removed by the Inheritance Act, 1833
Since 1925 the half blood take on intestacy immediately after the whole blood of the same degree. (Administration of Estates Act, 1925, s. 46.)<\/p>\n<\/h4>\n
