19-04.Plats, designation or variations in name.

Although a plat should be referred to in a conveyance as entitled in the owner's dedication clause in the filed plat as reflected by the abstract (without reference to the present state of incorporation of the municipality unless part of the plat name), minor inaccuracies in description such as the interchange of the words "subdivision" and "addition," the addition or omission of the word "first" when there is only one such addition, and other similar discrepancies which do not create a problem of identification can be disregarded, provided a title examiner is satisfied that the discrepancies do not create the possibility of reference to any other platted area in the village, city, municipality, township or other government subdivision of which the plat is part. It is sufficient in such instances to request the abstracter to note that there is only one such platted area.
