You do not provide enough information.. In Michigan general intestate (without a will) beneficiaries are as follows If a man dies without a will his estate goes to his legal wife if she is the mother of ALL HIS children If he is married and the legal wife is NOT the mother of all his children she gets 1/2 and the children split the other half If he is not married his estate is split between his children if there is only one child that child gets the entire estate. It does not matter if the daughter is illegitimate or not. It does not matter if the daughter abandoned the father I do not understand what you mean by "she leased the car and home".. who is she? and what does it matter if son died? who's son?
