The legal incidents of illegitimacy by the common law of England relate chiefly to succession or inheritance. . . . In the United States important modifications have been made in respect to the rights of illegitimate children. ─ The New American Cyclopaedia (1859)
There can be no doubt that there are incidents of marriage independent of all considerations of property. . . . There were local customs whereby a wife might take by immediate conveyance from her husband; . . . When husband and wife were dealing, not in their own right but in a representative character, or what is termed technically, in auter droit, either might sell and convey to the other, as to a stranger. ─ The American Law Register (1866)
