hello
My name is roby,i am a resident of trivandrum kerala.I wish i could get some details regarding procedures to legally convert my parents ancestral property to my name.
My parents passed away some years before,without preparing a will.
And we lost our land diocuments too.
my parents had 4 children including me and ours is christian family .
Last year my elder sister left this world and she has 3 children who are majors.
I have an younger brother and a sister also.
I HAVE ALREADY GIVEN BY SISTERS AND BROTHER THEIR RESPECTIVE SHARE IN CASH .
THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR COMMENTS

In christians, married daughter has no right in the ancestral property so she or her legal heirs have no right therein. Now you and your elder brother and sister are equally owners of such property. If your younger brother and sister have obtained cash from you against their shares then draft a family settlement and obtain its decree from civil court wherein both your brother and sister shall make their statements in your favour and that decree by getting it registered can be got recorded in the proper records.
