I just found several thousand dollars belonging to my late father-in-law on California's website: stock brokerage accounts he failed to close when he left California, what seems to be funds left over from sales of houses in Orange County and even his Reseda house in the 1960s.
UPDATE: Further examination shows that some of these were another Richard Thorne. The amount likely his is only a few hundred dollars, not worth the effort.
Had a nephew contact me because he'd seen my name on such a website. After a quick look I very quickly determined that the website he had linked was a commercial property-recovery service which charged a fee.
ReplyDeleteA quick websearch found the state's website which did not.
