Greetings Listmates -

I have a Deed of PR that I need to write. However, I am dealing with a
multiple name situation and I would love to get some suggestions so that in
15 years when the parties go to sell, they won't run into a title problem.

Single Family Home originally purchased by M & D, Sibling 1, and Sibling
2.  Sibling 1 is the Decedent. For educational purposes Sibling 1 was
identified on the original deed as David Scott Alan Johnson.

Years later there was a Deed of Trust issued where they are identified as
David Smith*

*also known as David Scott Alan Johnson. (this notation is actually on the
Deed of Trust)

When probate was opened, it was opened using the name on the Death
Certificate:  Scott Alan Smith.

The death certificate has an AKA notation of David Smith.

As I am now transferring the interest to their adult child and I would love
thoughts on if I should just list all of the names, even the original
(pre-marriage) name as part of the PR Deed where I normally have a
statement that reads:

as authorized by an Order entered in each of the above-referenced the
probate matters on July 23, 2024, to settle the Estate of ...... and then
just include (Decedent is also known as.....) and then list all of the
names contained in the original purchase Deed and then the Deed of Trust?

Or something else.

Appreciate any insights!

Thank you!
Brent
