CERTAIN LIMITATIONS CONSTRUED (§ 55.1-130)

Every limitation in any deed or will contingent upon the dying of any person
without heirs, heirs of the body, issue, issue of the body, children, offspring
or descendants, or other relatives shall be construed a limitation to take
effect when such person dies not having such heir, issue, child, offspring,
descendant, or other relative, as the case may be, living at the time of his
death, or born to him within 10 months after his death, unless the intention of
such limitation be otherwise plainly declared on the face of the deed or will
creating it.
