If the decedent left a will then the will should be probated and the provisions in the will must be followed. Your grandfather would automatically become the sole owner of any property he owned as joint tenants with his wife. If he wishes to claim "spousal election" under his state laws he may be entitled to take a share of his wife's estate by law. He should seek the advice of an attorney in his area.

Apparently any daughters of the desceased were not as interested in jewelry as the mother; or this would have been talked about while she was still with them.

This dream illustrates your frustration in struggling to deal with a multitude of little problems that have the potential of causing great harm. The deceased grandfather's home suggests that these could be issues relating to the family's past, to an inheritance, or possibly even genetic traits passed through the generations.
No, she should be held responsible. Typically the estate is responsible for paying the debts, including all the bills of the deceased. If the daughter has co-signed any paperwork regarding those bills, she may be held liable.
Apply to the executor of the estate. If there was no will, you would open the estate with the court, and you could ask to be the executor. You will also have to liquidate all of her debts.
