Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Florida

Wills are not required to be recorded. However, whomever the Personal Representative was, should have filed a copy of the will and death certificate, even if they have not opened a probate case yet. Final thought would be to contact whomever you think might be named the personal representative and ask them for a copy or contact the lawyer whom you think might have created the document. It is difficult if there is no estate (probate) case actually opened or filed. Please remember that if there were no assets in your Father's name alone, which would be required to be probated, or debts, then a probate case might have been required to be opened.
