[quote=Anonymous]My dad, his siblings, and his cousins were recently contacted by a lawyer about an inheritance. Apparently, there was a large parcel of land being sold but when they determined that the estate selling the land wasn't actually entitled to the money, they searched for who was entitled to the inheritance. It turned out that a couple of generations back the man who owned the land killed his wife, who I guess was the technical owner of the land. He was therefore not legally allowed to inherit the land, nor were his children (from a later relationship). The land reverted through the estate, etc, etc. In comes my Dad and his generation. When all was said and done, I think 10 people ended up inheriting about 20k each. This was entirely unexpected. My parents are pretty well off, and they felt kind of weird about the whole situation, so they donated the money to a battered women's shelter. It was a really interesting situation.[/quote]
