Re: will reading of my father
Your father's estate would be handled by the Connecticut Probate Court that covers the town where your father was living when he passed away. A phone call to the court would be the way to learn if you are properly listed as your father's son. A will contest is a complex matter and you would be strongly advised to consult with an attorney. Call or email me for further information.

Go to the probate court in the town where your father resided. There should have been a notice to creditors in the newspaper to contact the attorney naming him.
