Are peoples wills public records in all states?

April 22nd, 2011 1 comment

I am not sure if anyone knows the answer to this. My father died in the state of California in 2004, and my sister and live in Pennsylvania. He hadn’t been in contact with us for years, before he got sick very quickly and died. My sister and I had no relationship with the controlling woman he was married to. Any questions asked her were not answered, and we let it go. We have since learned the wife has dementia. Not sure where she is. My sister and I are trying to find out if my father had a will or whats happening to the property out there? We have heard just recently through friends of my fathers out there, that the property is deteriorating and no ones been around the house for awhile. I would like to know what is public record out there and can I find it online? Such as property tax. if the house is paid off. Up for sheriff sale? Or if he had a will. Our father was cremated and my sister I know his ashes are there somewhere in the house. If nothing else we would like to at least get his ashes,and bring them home, but before we would go out there, we want to make sure the house isn’t getting sold for back taxes. We don’t know who his lawyer was and we are basically stuck trying to find out information. Any help someone could give me as to guide me in the right direction would be appreciated. I was able to at least get his death certificate, but that’s about all.

If your father had a will and it was probated then it is public record. Call the probate court in the county in which your dad lives and ask if there was an estate opened under his name. Also, if you have the address of the property you can get a title company to check for a nominal fee to see if the property is in your dad’s name still. If it is, and there has been no estate opened, and you cannot find a will, then his next of kin are entitled to the property.

What the difference between brotherhood love and gay love?

one of Tim Tebow ( Gators Florida Football QB) team-mates like to hug even kiss him..last one recorded on-air (check youtube). When media asked "this-guy" reason, he simply replied: " I love Tebow, we share room together, he’s like my brother, my man!!"
I always amaze when big-black guy express their love to each other freely, but as a gay men…that kind of affection seems impossible without Sexual attraction. It just not make sense to me Idk
But I also not defend 100% on my gay side..since my high school crush seems like brother to me. I love him ’till death and funny…I don’t even want to touch him, or imagine him with my dirty thoughts. He is too pure in my mind. My crush treated differently than my ex-gay lover which relationship infused with lust and kinky sex :p.

Both very good answerer, thanks..to remind me the platonic love

Friendship (brotherhood) is love without infatuation or lust. A gay "love" is infatuation and lust combined with friendship.

Can anybody help me find info on my great father in-law, Hermann Hemesath, immigrated to US from Germany?

He either owned or worked in a brewery in St Paul, Minnessota. I live in Austria now and have no job and no credit card so I am finding it very difficult to research. I know from the few pictures I have found that he worked in St Paul in 1955. I have only been able to find his New York entrance records. It is very important to my mother in law. Her mother told her he abandoned her but apon the mothers death, she found a box full of letters from him saying how much he loved her and pleading for her to write him. My mother in law lived a horrable life and if I could shed just a little bit of light on her past, I hope it will bring her some closure. I believe he died in 1965 and was born in 1911. Ihope someone can help.

If this is the same man, then I’m afraid he did die in 1965.

Herman Hemesath died in Santa Cruz, California on 28 March 1965. It lists his date of birth as 30 May 1911 in Germany.

Ironically, I found 2 other men with the same name living in Iowa. One was born in 1908 and died in 2000, the other is still living. I have no idea if there was any relationship between them all.

I did find several telephone listings and addresses for people with this last name (which I’ve organized by state for you) at this site: http://www.whitepages.com/10001/log_feature/sort/search/Replay/?search_id=50191321541355727642&sort=state

I asked earlier if death certificates and will were public records?

and if they are how do I access them ,I am in florida and the death was in dec of 2007 does this help

The death certificate would come from the Florida Department of Health. Here is a website that will give you step by step instructions as to how to procede. You may need to send proof of your relationship and don’t forget to send the appropriate amount of money

You WILL NOT find death certificates online. Death records are restricted in most states and the revenue generated from ordering them are a cash cow for most places.

As far as the will goes… Not everyone leaves a will. Sadly, most to not. However, after a persons death a will needs to be probated. If this person died in December, it may not have even gone through probate yet if they left one. You might want to check with the probate court in the appropriate county to see if it has been filed.

Florida does have procedures for distibution if the person did die without a will. They are as follows.

Florida law sets forth rules for the distribution of an estate if there is no will.

If these is a surviving spouse and no lineal descendants, the surviving spouse is entitled to the entire estate.

If there is a surviving spouse with lineal descendants, and all lineal descendants are also descendants of the surviving spouse, the surviving spouse is entitled to the first $20,000 of the probate estate, plus one-half of the remainder of the probate estate. The descendants share in equal portions the remainder of the estate.

If there is a surviving spouse with lineal descendants, and not all lineal descendants are also descendants of the surviving spouse, the surviving spouse is entitled to one-half of the probate estate, and the descendants of the deceased share the other half of the estate in equal shares.

If there is no surviving spouse and there are descendants, each child is entitled to an equal share, with the children of a deceased child sharing the share of their deceased parent.

If there is no surviving spouse and no children or other descendants, Florida law provides additional rules for distributing an estate in such circumstances.
