Yes. The fund may have been in your parent's name at death in a "Payable on Death" account where your parent named a beneficiary directly with the company or bank that held the funds.
You can start by checking with the deceased parent's lawyer, estate planning attorney, or financial advisor. You can also check with the probate court in the county where the deceased parent lived to see if a will has been filed for probate. Sometimes, the executor named in the will or the deceased parent's close family members may also have knowledge of the existence of a will.
the relative who has left a inheritance has to have left a will to whoever they want to get the inheritance
If the Will has been probated, it is public record and can be viewed. Check with the probate court(s) where the deceased resided.
money that has been inherited has already been assessed for inheritance tax based on the amount left in the deceased estate. Once you have inherited the money you are not liable for inheritance tax.
Once all of the deceased ills have been paid can the left over funds be distributed?
The best thing you can do to protect yourself from the negative behaviors with which your deceased alcoholic parent left you is to go to counseling. If possible, find a counselor who specializes in the children of alcoholics.

You have asked a complicated question. Consider the following:If your husband is already deceased at the time of his parent's death, in the case of an estate with no will, you would not be an heir at law of your in-laws. However, if you have children they may inherit their father's share of his parent's estate according to state laws. You can check your state laws of intestacy at the related question link provided below.If his parent left a will it depends on the wording in the will. The language used in the will is very important. It may provide that the portion of a deceased beneficiary goes to his siblings or that it goes to his issue (children).If your husband received an inheritance and then died it would be part of his own estate and would pass according to the laws of intestacy if he had no will or by the provisions in his will.
