[quote=Anonymous]Inheritance law depends on the state but consummation of the marriage isn’t required to be “married” but it can be terms for an annulment vs a divorce. In Virginia, when a husband and wife die together in an accident, the husband is deemed to die first, then the wife second. So if this had happened in Virginia, and they had both died intestate (without a will), the husband dies and leaves his estate to his wife who then dies and leaves the estate to her heirs. Technically under that scenario the husband’s family receives nothing, and if the wife had no children her parents get everything. [/quote]
