Haimbaugh Landscaping v. Lawrence A. Jegen

STANLEY, Commissioner. As related in Ford v. Yost, 299 Ky. 682, 186 S.W.2d 896, John W. Ford, Sr., died in 1924, testate, leaving three children and a large estate. We there held void the provision of his will placing the part of his estate devised to his son, John Ford, Jr., and his children in trust for thirty years after its probate because it violated the statute and rule against perpetuities. The widow of John Ford, Jr., who died in 1936, appeals from a judgment denying her claim of dower.
