Hi Mel,
I recently had one of these requests for a sliver of a parcel still legally owned by someone who died in the 1880s. The parcel itself was included in a current assessment, undoubtedly for the reason Ian mentioned in his reply above. We follow the same process as he does. In my experience the prospective owners are satisfied with this approach after having to discharge the onerous evidentiary requirements demanded by LRS in these cases.
Cheers,
James
