[WSBAPT] Notifying "street person" heir of probate proceeding

[Lewis, Amy C.]

If you know where the child is living on the street, you might be able to have a PI track them down through a homeless shelter or other nonprofit that works with the local homeless.  We had a case where a PI contacted several such agencies in the city where the child was living (we were fortunate to know that much), and one of the shelters was able to put us in touch with our heir.

Listmates:

I never had to worry about this before, but now its come a knockin.  Father dies intestate.  No wife but three children.  One child has lived on the streets, for a long time, with no known address (physical or mail).  No contact with the other siblings.  How does one notify this person of the pending probate?
