strange notary form question

Could some one help me out? I need to know how to fill in the blanks. This instrument was acknowledged before me on june 23,2005, by John Doe.(in the rare case of a Corporation or trustee it will continue "in my capacity of ----------for-----------.")

You'll see this again. The ()s cover when the person signing as a trustee or corporate office. Example. A family trust name Sam Doe trust number 1. would fill in "in my capacity as trustee for the Sam Doe number 1 trust".

For a corp, would be . "capacity of president of John Doe corporation."

My rule of thumb, "When in Doubt, Leave it Out." If you have your own states acceptable wording on a loose certificate, use it, cross out the preprinted wording. As you need to complete the certificate as per your own states regs.

Good Luck.
