This antiquated form of inheritance has been done away with in virtually every country in the world.

In a way, no one dies without a will (commonly called "intestate"). Each State has actually made one for you!

Each State has something called the "laws of descent" that it uses to determine who gets what, in what order or percent. I've never seen one that didn't include people of a class (like all natural children, parents, siblings, granchildren, etc., equally. No one of a class to get more than another).

They change a bit State by State, so you should find the one for the State that the person died in.

It is in the interest of the state to see that all descendants inherit, to avoid having a very wealthy individual and a bunch of siblings with no means of support relying on the state.
