Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Edition (1856)

ORPHANAGE, Eng. law. By the custom of London, when a freeman of that city
dies, his estate is divided into three parts, as follows: one third part to
the widow; another, to the children advanced by him in his lifetime, which
is called the orphanage; and the other third part may be by him disposed of
by will. Now, however, a freeman may dispose of his estate as he pleases;
but in cases of intestacy, the statute of distribution expressly excepts and
reserves the custom of London. Lov. on Wills, 102, 104; Bac. Ab. Custom of
London, C. Vide Legitime.
