Description
Action in equity by plaintiff Dorothy Holmes Rainer against defendants Charles James Holmes, Grace Alice Holmes, Rock county,
a municipal corporation, Emily Holmes Young and Betty Holmes Alexander, for partition of real estate and reimbursement for
improvements, taxes and insurance. The property was ordered sold and was sold for $8,500. The court referred to a referee
the matter of distribution of the proceeds. After hearing the matter the referee reported to the trial court recommending
judgment substantially as prayed for in the plaintiff's complaint. From a judgment in accordance with the referee's recommendation,
defendants Charles James Holmes and Grace Alice Holmes appeal. The parties inherited the real estate from their widowed mother upon her death December 25, 1936. She left surviving her
twelve children. At the time of her death she was receiving county welfare aid. The property consisted of a seven-room house
and a small barn situated on a lot and a half in Afton, Wisconsin. The house was in poor condition, with no running water,
no bathroom, a partial basement and the property then was worth not more than $2,000.
