Validity of a court decree 82 years back

(Querist) 08 December 2009 This query is : Resolved 
A court decree was obtained 82 years back in connection with our ancestral property in Kerala. Names of around 30 family members were mentioned in that decree and most of them are no more now, and the property is now in possession of 10 members of the legal heirs of the family members, whose names are mentioned in the decree. Land tax is paid in the name of those who are in the possession of the property for the past 50 years at the least. Some of the minor girls whose names are mentioned in the decree are married off 70 years back and many of them are no more. Can the legal heirs of such ladies have a legally valid claim on our ancestral property? We are Malayali Brahmins and is there any court decision whereby it is decided that Women married off before 1974 do not have rights/claims in connection with their ancestral properties? Can the property be partitioned among those who are in the possession of the properties? Please provide the guidance needed.
