Can't go directly to Florida's page; you'll have to enter the surname and search. But there are ten KINKEADs and 158 KINCAID/KINCAIDEs: http://www.fltreasurehunt.org/ControlServlet?ActionForm=GotoNewPublicSearch My sister and I received the last of the claimed monies from our parents' estates yesterday-- $463 each. Cost to file the claim= $5 for a death certificate and 42¢ for a stamp. We've called in close to $9,000 from the state over the thirty years since my dad died and the ten since mom passed away, mostly forgotten utility deposits, stocks erroneously thought defunct, small account interest, etc. Worth a look in YOUR state.

Dick, Good detective work! I visited with our local post office about the dead letter in 1700's and they said it would be worth a try. They did not know exactly what would be needed in order to show descendancy from the addressee.

This money is not taxable to an heir unless the whole estate was valued at $600,000 or more. That may change next year (decrease or disappear) as a result of the election. For a living claimant, it's likely the tax was already paid unless the income is interest or dividends in excess of $400. The search term is "UNCLAIMED PROPERTY."
