0 a daughter’s husband. -- svigersøn
Her family had run into financial problems after the sickness and death of a son-in-law.
They had initially turned him down too, though his son-in-law was a member of the curia of lords.
It was on the bride's parents whether to give such gifts to their daughter and son-in-law for a fresh start.
But it would seem that he and his son-in-law had kept one small craft tied up in a secluded cove until the 29th.
For most, dominion passed to a son or, more frequently, to a son-in-law, brother or brother-in-law.
Others include grandchildren, son-in-law, other male and female relatives, and neighbours.
Consequently, in order to survive, the domestic group occasionally had to violate regional customs - the classic example for this being the in-marrying son-in-law.
People would just say to the woman's family, 'well, that's it, your family has gained a son-in-law'.
