Estates tail: Enjoyment by posthumous child. Where an estate shall be any conveyance limited, in remainder, to the son or daughter or issue, or to use of the son or daughter or issue of any person to be begotten, such son or daughter or issue, born after the decease of his or her father, shall take the estate in the same proportion, and in the same manner, as if he or she had been born in the lifetime of the father, although no estate shall have been created or conveyed to support the contingent remainder after his death.
