Kindred
Kin´dred
KINDRED. Relations by blood.
2. Nature has divided the kindred of every one into three principal
classes. 1. His children, and their descendants. 2. His father, mother, and
other ascendants. 3. His collateral relations; which include, in the first
place, his brothers and sisters, and their descendants and, secondly, his
uncles, cousins, and other relations of either sex, who have not descended
from a brother or sister of the deceased. All kindred then are descendants,
ascendants, or collaterals. A husband or wife of the deceased, therefore, is
not his or her kindred. 14 Ves. 372. Vide Wood's Inst. 50; Ayl. Parerg. 325;
