Why is it unfortunate for Mr Bennett's daughters that his estate is entailed?
The Bennet estate is entailed away from the female line. This means that at some point in history, an ancestor, who owned the estate, provided in the will that it could only go to male heirs. Since all of Mr. Bennet's children are daughters, the next in line to inherit has to be a man, in this case, Mr. Collins. The situation of the Rosings estate contrasts with this. Anne de Bourgh can inherit Rosings because the estate is not entailed. This means that she own the estate, unless she marries. Though Jane Austen never goes into it. Anne de Bourgh has a very good reason not to marry Darcy, which is that if she does so, she will lose ownership of the estate.
What will happen to the bennet estate in pride an prejudice?
Yes. The Bennett estate is entailed to whoever Mr. Bennett's male heir is. Since the Bennets have no sons, the estate reverts to the closest male relative, i.e. Mr Colllins. This situation is not changed with the marriages of any of his daughters. However, the situation becomes less pressing since, upon Mr. Bennett's death, his widow can depend on her well-married daughters for her care.
Why is it important that all the Bennet sister marry wealthy men?
Because Mr Bennett's estate is entailed upon the next male heir, in this case Mr Collins, a distant cousin. This means that when Mr Bennett dies, his wife and daughters will be left penniless unless the girls can marry wealthy men who can provide for them.
Is Mr Bennet a better parent?
Mr. Bennet's heir is Mr. Collins. Though Mr. Bennet has five daughters, none can be the heiress, because the estate is entailed. The entailment states that the heir has to be male. The result is that because Mr. Bennet has no son, the estate must be left to the next male in line, who is a cousin. The entailment is not something that was automatic under English law. Estates could be left to daughters, and were, unless some owner wrote the entailment into a deed or will. Since Rosings is not entailed, Anne de Bourgh is able to inherit the estate. Her situation provides an interesting counterpoise to that of the Bennet girls.
