More details to this question:
Would I be allowed to stay in the house of my boyfriend of 10 years if he were to die and he doesn't have a will? He has 2 adult children to a previous marriage and we have one minor child together. Or what needs to be done to ensure me and our daughter have a place to live in the event of his untimely death? Thanks.

Too little information to answer this. Is he on the deed? Is there a mortgage? Did he have mortgage insurance? Will there be an estate opened? Did he have a will? Generally, if this house is owned by him and in his name, his heirs will likely want to sell it. I would bring all of your information to an attorney.
