COPYHOLDER

copyholder. Hist. A tenant by copyhold tenure.

¡ª Also termed tenant by the verge; tenant par la verge.

¡°The lord still held a court, and that court kept records of all transactions affecting the lands. These records were called the rolls of the court. When, for instance, a tenant sold his interest to a third party, the circumstances of the sale would be recorded, and the buyer would receive a copy of the court rolls in so far as they affected his holding. Inasmuch as he held his estate by copy of court roll, he came to be called a copyholder.¡± G.C. Cheshire, Modern Law of Real Property 24 (3d ed. 1933).
