Ours was money Kathy,   ;D

I think when a person dies intestate, they sell everything and convert it to cash which is then held by the treasury which  can then be distributed when the beneficiaries are found.  so I don't think you would get anything else, which  is quite sad but practicle.

possibly ..... but I'd be willing to bet !  8)

'Orrible 'Orace totally disappeared after 1911 - using his 'legal' name he's nowhere to be found.
