[WSBAPT] Deed Clarification

[Mark McClure, J.D. - McClure Law Group]

I see this far too often.  How hard would have been to simply say, 50%
undivided interest to xxx, and 50% interest to xx and xx, a married couple?

Apologies if this seems like a silly question but the title company does
not know the answer and neither do I.  I have a deed that conveys to Mary
Smith, an individual, and John and Joan Smith, a married couple. Does this
create a 1/3 interest in each of the three parties or a 50% interest with
Mary and a 50%  CP interest with John and Joan?
