Help finding owner/heir probate property

Hi everyone 

While out meeting neighbors, one of them told me about a property that would be a probate deal. The owner/landlord passed away about six months ago. She left the property to her nephew who unfortunately passed away about 2-3 months later. So now we have this property (occupied with tenants) with no owner. The property seems free and clear based on the date of last title transfer. The tax records list the property's address. Where do I go from here to track down the person responsible for the property now? I'm not sure who to skip trace since both the owner and heir are passed already. The tenants don't know who to call - and may not be motivated to find them since they are living rent free at the moment :-)
