Registration of Deeds (Ireland) Act, 1864

Defective registration of assurances in Ireland made valid in certain cases.

1. If it shall appear that the registration of any assurance registered prior to the passing of this Act is defective by reason of the memorial thereof not being written on vellum or parchment, or not being directed to the registrar, or not being attested by two witnesses, or not stating the day of the month and year when such assurance bears date, or the names and additions of all the witnesses to such assurance, or the abodes of the witnesses to such memorial, or by reason of any formal omission or defect in the affidavit or the witness proving the signing and sealing of such memorial, the execution of the assurance mentioned in such memorial, or not stating the day and time of the delivery of such memorial to the registrar, then and in every such case the registration of any such assurance, without any amendment or further registry, shall be as good and valid as the same would have been if there had been no such defect in the registration thereof.
