Death Records Now

My grandmother passed away awhile ago now. I didn’t think about the will at the time. It didn’t cross my mind at all because of my emotions dealing with her death. But, now that some time has passed, I realize that we never saw a will or heard anything about it. I know for a fact that there was a will. My aunt and my father aren’t on good terms. I believe that my aunt (whom is probably the executor) did something not moral/legal. Like have my frandmother write my dad out of the will when she wasn’t metally competent…

Does anyone know if I would be able to see a copy of my grandmother’s will if my aunt won’t give it to us?

Yes. Wills are a public record. If you go into the Register of Wills Office, you can see the complete estate file just for the asking. And you do not have to prove that you are a relative of the decedent.

You can call the Register of Wills Office and ask the clerk there whether there is a will, how many pages, and what it would cost to copy and mail it to you. Upon receipt of a letter of request and payment, they will mail to you. Here is a link that will give you contact information for Registers of Wills of the various counties in Pennsylvania. http://evans-legal.com/dan/regwills.html
