One parent is deceased and the others won't answer questions about the document. How do we find out what it covers as a child of the parents?

Consult with a local attorney to review the case that was likely filed in the town where they passed. If the will was filed and no objection was timely filed, you may not have a remedy. For peace of mind, the consultation may be worth your while.
