Facts
- In 1971, Mr. Perkowski died intestate.
- At the time, Perkowski owned a vacant lot in Connecticut.
- A 1/3 interest in the lot went to Perkowski's widow while a 1/6 interest went to each of the 4 children
- However, the widow mistakenly believed that she had inherited everything (i.e., the whole lot)
- Based on the said assumption, the widow conveyed the entire lot to her daughter & son-in-law (the daughter's husband) "O'Connor"
