I am the 56 year old illegimate daughter of my Texan father who died in December 2007. Although illegitimate, my father and I were in constant contact by either e-mail or phone. We had a good relationship. I am the eldest of his children. His wife of over 56 years does not know of my existence. My father had implied that I would be contacted if ever anything happened to him. I wasn't contacted and found out by accident of his death. What I would like to know is how can I find out if I was ever mentioned in his will - if he had one? How can I find out anything in relation to me? Perhaps he left a letter? He had wanted me to visit just before his death. Do I have any rights? Thank you.
