Hi ojread, nothing was written up by a solicitor at the time of sale re share percentages. As far as the missing persons' intent is concerned, there was a meeting with him, my 2 sisters and myself where he stated his intent was just to help.
I can prove everything else. Although I have lost contact with his estranged wife, there have been 2 attempts to trace him using investigation bureaus (one by the Estate and one by the mortgage company), there is third attempt under way now by the solicitors holding the surplus. I also have a letter from my late sisters solicitors from 1998, (7 years after purchase), where she had instructed them to find him, and where it states that he had not contributed in any way shape or form. I also have charge certificate from when property was owned by our parents in 1970
