Yes, if the will has been submitted for probate. Contact the probate court in the county/state where the deceased lived just prior to death or where the deceased owned real property. In PA, that would be the Register of Wills at the Orphan's Court.

If a will has been probated, there will be an estate file. See who is named as the personal represeentative in the will and who applied for letters.
