Heir Hunters Series 5

Episode 6 of 25

The team search for the relatives of a retired British army captain who died in Malta, and the relatives of a Lithuanian Jewish immigrant who may have anglicised their family name.

The latest in the series dedicated to finding the heirs of people who have died without leaving a will.

Retired British Army Captain Brian Simon Birch MBE died in Malta where he'd lived as an expat for over 20 years. He left an estate worth over 270,000 pounds and the heir hunters throw all their resources at the case.

The heir hunters also look at the estate of Marilyn Kutner whose family came to Britain from Lithuania in the 1920s. Like many Jewish immigrants, the Kutners anglicised their names, making the search for Marilyn's heirs very difficult indeed.
