Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Texas

My grandmother passed away 17 years ago. At the time, I was told I was in the will and then some time after told one didn�t exist. The problem is that it has been 17 years and the remaining children (the husband is deceased) haven�t received the money. My confusion is, IF there isn�t a will, shouldn�t they have received it pretty quickly? Could something have held it up for 17 years or is there a will I don�t know about that is holding things up.

You can check probate records in the county where your grandmother lived or died. If a will was filed for probate, a copy should be there.
