The Common Room / intestate rules
« on: Thursday 17 January 19 11:17 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
Yes it happened to me! Received a letter from a professional genealogy firm referring to a distant relative had died intestate. Large value estate but many potential beneficiaries spread all over the globe!! Now some 2 years on the solicitors appointed are sitting on the liquidated estate running into 6 figures, can somebody advise if the money held by the solicitors will attract interest and at what rate? I am the appointed administrator. The genealogy firm are still chasing potential beneficiaries and say this process could go on for years! Is there a time limit?
Thankyou in advance for any help
Mike.

Hi, I have sent off forms 1 and 2 together with a cheque for £30.00 to RN 48 West Battery, PO2 8DX on the 10th January. I have not received any acknowledgement or information. How long does this normally take? How can I cheque to see if the request has been received?

Hi, The search document requires his NI Number. He has been deceased for 60+ years with no close family to ask. How do I get this info? Sid Hardy is my uncle. I do have his service number (1917 - 1937)

Hi, I have located his Navy record up to 1930's but cannot find anything more. I know he served during 1939 -1946. His service number: J42199. I would like to trace his service record up to leaving the Navy. Born 1900, Death 1968, Lived in Birmingham. 1911 Census: RG14, 18364.
Any help offered would be much appreciated.
Mike.

Norfolk / Re: William Hardy d1786 Mary d1782 Caston revisited

True Pat, William's birth remains a mystery William and Mary's children were all born/baptised in Caston between 1735 and 1749. I have looked at all on-line records for the parishes surrounding Caston and cannot find a reference to William or Mary (maiden name unknown).
Not sure how far to broaden the search?
