A man left his father one farthing in his will because she complained about him breaking wind.
Albert Orton, from Coventry, decided that’s all he would leave to his partner after she labelled him a ”rotten old pig”.
Neil Fraser, a partner in Fraser and Fraser, a London-based genealogy firm, said: ”It’s quite hard to spot the unusual lines because they are typically just one paragraph in a five page document.
”But every now and again you will stumble across a funny line, paragraph or strange request which makes us laugh in the office.
”It is great to think these people have tried to add a little bit of humour to their will.”
