Anna Mathieu, wife of Sanders Payton, Jr., died intestate on April 6, 1947, and shortly thereafter Henry Jones, claiming to be her child by a previous marriage and her sole heir, accepted her succession purely, simply, and unconditionally, and was recognized and sent into possession by the Civil District Court for the Parishs of Orleans. The entire estate amounted to $2,000 and consisted only of a lot of ground in Algiers, upon which there is a small house known as 1000 Odeon Street, which was her separate and paraphernal property inherited from her parents.
