[quote=Anonymous]Can someone clarify the estate/entail law of the time? How was Matthew able to will the estate to Mary instead of it automatically going to baby George, but Lord Grantham wasn't able to will the estate to Cora when they were all clearly dismayed initially that a distant cousin they didn't know (Matthew) was the male heir? Or was Lord Grantham just accepting a sexist convention of male inheritance that wasn't legally mandated?[/quote]
