I'm from Massachusetts; I had breakfast with an old friend and she mentioned that her family has a property in Shenandoah VA that 3 of her siblings don't know what to do with it.

Greensboro's largest employers are Guilford County Public Schools, which employs over 10,000 people, Coen Health, and the City of Greensboro.

Most sales of the "family farm" came not from having to pay estate taxes, but from the one sibling desiring to carry on not being able to buy out the others -- the number of siblings is a real factor, as even in the late 1950s, the US department of agriculture had a question on its farm loan applications: How many sons do you have?

Or depending on how old they are, you might find names of parents and siblings in the census info - latest public census is 1940.If someone immigrated, the immigration paperwork can be ordered or sometimes can be found in the logal courthouse, where they lived at the time of naturalization.

Just keep using the information that you find to dig deeper including siblings, children, spouses (past or present).

My siblings and I own some commercial properties in Erie and we're ready to sell those.

The trust owns the property (my mother is the beneficiary of the trust, me and my siblings are 2nd, 3rd, and 4th beneficiary’s)Yes, it already had a home on it.

All these investments after all the years are worthed as kid would finish their university with zero debts zero student loan , and he got 6 digit income even before he graduated.invest in 401k/529/Ira/real estate is all worthed…Personally I don't like 529, I prefer Coverdell/Education IRA , where you can also invest in Real Estate and you can use the funds for school (ie K-12), and if your Kid doesn't want to learn, you can transfer it to a sibling.
