Re: money
A spouse is usually not entitled to any of the proceeds from the sale of an Spouse or Ex Spouse's "inherited property."
In addition, whatever claim or interest you may have had to recoup any contribution you made to the acquisition, maintenance or value appreciation, of the premises, was probably completely extinquished at dissolution of your marriage.
Good luck,
Re: money
WHile generally you are not entitled to anything from inherited property i believe you mentioned that the house was turned over to your husband 5 years prior to the death of his father, this may make a difference and you may be able to recover money.
