He who, after his ancestor dies intestate, has a right to all lands, tenements, and hereditaments which belonged to him or of which he was seised. The same as "heir general" ... [Black’s, 5th ed., 1979, p. 854].  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - heir%20at%20law

The feudal rules of succession applied to find the heir were based on the succession of males in preference to females, on primogeniture among males, and on representation, whereby a descendant of a pre-deceased heir, e.g. a grandson, took in preference to a collateral of the deceased, e.g. a brother. An heir general or heir at law is such an heir. [The "Oxford Companion to Law," 1980, p. 559].  1, fiche 1, Anglais, - heir%20at%20law

The reason why words of procreation were required was that "heirs, "extended to all the "heirs general, "including relatives other than descendants of the grantee, such as his brothers, uncles or cousins. An entail, however, was an interest which could pass only to lineal descendants of the original grantee(heirs special) and so "heirs" had to be restricted by the addition of words of procreation.

In order to create an estate tail at common law, words of procreation had to be used, such as, "and the heirs of his body". Statutes in the 19th century relaxed this requirement in much the same way as in the case of the fee simple. The estate continues in effect in England but it has been abolished in most of the Canadian provinces.(Anger and Honsberger, 2nd ed., 1985, p. 28).  2, fiche 2, Anglais, - words%20of%20procreation

However, to create an estate tail by disposition "inter vivos", the common law required the use of the word "heirs" followed by, or coupled with, words of procreation, such as "of his body", "of his body lawfully begotten", or "from him proceeding".(Mendes da Costa and Balfour, p. 700)  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - disposition%20inter%20vivos
