No will at all (unless it’s in the box). No clues of anything! I don’t have the key available, but when I do I’ll send it your way.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am not aware of any way to tell what bank the key is from, however, I have seen enough of them that usually I can guess the bank (not always). Can you send a picture of the key or describe the tag? Is it round or square? <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Was there an attorney involved in preparing wills etc? Often clients tell their attorneys where their safety deposit box is. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">She should look through the bank statements, it's usually a one time annual charge for the box. That could give some information or insight. <o:p></o:p></p>
