when you show a Chevrolet a mountain.
And you’ll do a lot of looking to find com-

Here’s How State Divides
Estates When There
Is No Will
The death of an intestate person
(one who has made no will) may give
rise to many problems regarding dis-
tribution of his separate estate. In
- the preceding column we investi-
gated the manner of dividing the
community estate upon the death of a
husband and wife. Now we shall see
that, where separate property is in-
volved, a completely different set of
rules applies in determining heirship
and apportioning the estate among
the rightful claimants.
It may be well to recall that the
separate estate of a husband or wife
includes property owned by either
before marriage, and that which is
acquired after marriage by gift or in-
heritance. Any other property ac-
quired after marriage is presumed
by law to be community property un-
til the contrary is clearly proved.
Now here is a general idea as. to
how your separate property will be
divided if you do not make a will
with contrary provisions prior to
your death.
If your husband or wife survives,
and if, in addition, there are surviv-
ing children or descendants of pre-
viously deceased children, the chil-
dren and their descendants immedi-
ately obtain a full (fee) title in two-
thirds of the real estate involved.
The surviving spouse receives a life
interest in the remaining one-third
of the real property, which passes on
to the children and their descendants
upon the death of the spouse.
The rule for distributing personal
property—cash, stocks, bonds, furni-
ture, or any other items not consti-
tuting real estate—is different. Here
the surviving spouse gets full owner-
ship of one-third, and the children
and their descendants inherit the bal-
ance.
Now suppose your husband or wife
survives, but there are no surviving
children or their descendants. In
this case the surviving spouse inher-
its all of the personal property in-
volved.
With regard to real estate, the sur-
vivor obtains full title to one-half,
and the other half is divided between
your mother and father, if both sur-
vives, he or she receives only half of
this portion, and the other half (or
one-fourth of the entire real estate)
will be divided among your brothers
and sisters (and their descendants)
who survive. If there are no surviv-
ing brothers and sisters and their de-
scendants, then the one surviving
parent inherits the full one-half.
Where no parent survives, but
there are brothers and sisters and
descendants, the full one-half is di-
vided among these survivors.
Where no parent survives, but
there are brothers and sisters and de-
scendants, the full one-half is di-
vided among these survivors.
And, if there are no parents or
brothers and sisters (and their de-
scendants) surviving, then the sur-
viving husband or wife inherits all
of the real estate.
