and his heirs

A term of art formerly required to transfer complete title (a fee simple absolute) to real estate [A conveys Blackacre to B and his heirs].

• This phrasing originated in the translation of a Law French phrase used in medieval grants (a lui et a ses heritiers pour toujours “to him and his heirs forever”). See FEE SIMPLE.
