Re: Heirs By-Law
It is not possible to answer your question without a great deal more information. Is there a Will? did your grandfather leave a Will? who owns the house, whose name is on the deed?
I think you really need to meet with (and pay) an attorney who handles Estates, to investigate and tell you what your rights are. Start with the Bar Association for your county. Good luck. Let me know if I can help.
