Catalan to English translations [PRO]
Catalan term or phrase: accions
I find it hard to imagine these were shares in a swamp ...

"La casa va ser donada per Gaudí a la parròquia de Riudoms, juntament amb dues peces de terra i sis accions del pantà de Riudecanyes, amb la finalitat de fer una fundació en memòria del seu pare, i sota l’advocació de la Mare de Déu de Montserrat."
Jon Zuber (X)
English translation:shares in an artificial reservoir
Explanation:
Have a look at this reference, Jon, and you'll see the pantà. It's not a swamp. I hope this makes a wee bit more sense!

Sort!

Sheila

six portions / shares


Explanation:
I think he was given a share of the swamp. The problem is really the SIX aspect of it.

I thought maybe since a swamp is worth more money than the average mortal can pay, it was divided into parts and sold separately (?!)

I'm absolutely guessing!
