Subject: [WSBAPT] Need referral for heir finder service in CA/WA

Hi Listmates,

We are doing a WA probate with a CA (possibly recently relocated to WA) beneficiary who died about a week ago.  We need to ensure that the deceased beneficiary has no children/spouse of which we are unaware.

We only knew about one service, called Kin Finders, which apparently is no longer in business.  I'm concerned about going with the first busines listed on Google; has anyone worked with one of these heir locator services that you would refer?

Thanks,
Candace Wilkerson
