When my Grandpa died, my Grandma sold off all their rights to the property in the country just so that she would not have to deal with our family members from Ohio, who apparently are an exceptionally bad crop of people. She divided her share of the wealth among her children and that was the end of it for my immediate family.
Not too many years after that, no one was paying taxes on the land any more and the land was taken by the govt and sold to someone who uses the acreage as their own private hunting grounds.
I wish she had kept it-- but humans can be so onery!

It seems that inheritances bring out the worst in people.
My mothers family are about as good as you get in people that get along and don't have a lot of drama. It seems that the death of a family member with a little land can bring that all tumbling down.
