20.In so far as the Second Appeal is concerned, the main contention of the appellant is that one Ramasamy Gounder owned more than 6.33 acres of land, out of which, 1.53 acres was allotted to his eldest son Marimuthu, 1.60 acres each to the other sons. On perusal of the materials placed before this Court, it could be seen that the earliest documents vide Ex.A1 is the document prepared on the basis of “A” Register of the year 1937, wherein it is shown that Ramasamy Gounder, forefather of the grandfather of the plaintiff and great grandfather of the fifth defendant's vendor – 3.08 acres. Ex.A2 which is a copy of the “A” Register dated 10.01.2009 clearly shows that S.No.42/1 was sub-divided into S.Nos.42/1A, 42/1B, 42/1C and 42/1D and patta numbers and respective names of the land holders, according to which, patta no.109 pertains to S.No.42/1A stands in the name of one P.Kannupaiyan, who is the son of Perumal, who is the second son of Ramasamy Gounder. Patta No.156 stands in the name of P.Krishnan, in respect of S.No.42/1B, who is also the second son of Perumal. Patta No.623 pertains to S.No.42/1C stands in the name of R.Marimuthu, predecessor of the vendor of the fifth defendant. Patta No.808 stands in the name of R.Venkatachalam, in respect of S.No.42/1D, who is the father of the plaintiff. The FMB marked vide Ex.A3 clearly demarcates all these sub-divisions. Thus, it is seen that the properties after sub-division stands in the name of the sons of Ramasamy Gounder.
