Re: in the will?
A will is required to be filed with the Probate Clerk of Court in the county in which a person dies.
If there is a will on file, you will be able to review it and make a copy at the clerk's office.
If there was no will, then your father's estate would pass by the intestate laws of the state of Illinois.
