Tail male general is the same thing as tail male; the word "general", in such case, implying that there is no other restriction upon the descent of the estate than that it must go in the male line.... The word "general", in the phrase, expresses a purely negative idea, and may denote the absence of any restriction, or the absence of some given restriction which is tacitly understood.(Black, 5th, p. 1303)  1, record 2, English, - general%20tail%20male

Coparcenary arose where two or more persons took hereditaments by the same title by descent. This might be at common law or by special custom. Coparcenary arose at common law where upon the death of a man seised in fee or in tail the land descended upon two or more females as heirs general or heirs in tail; it arose by custom where, according to the custom of gavelkind, the land descended upon two or more male persons. Such persons were called "coparceners"; they constituted but one heir to their ancestor; they had a joint seisin, and they had equal rights in the land as regards each other.(Halsbury, 4th ed., Vol. 39, pp. 371-2)  1, record 3, English, - coparcenary
