MISSING MONEY?

There is approximately $22M in unclaimed property in the State of Texas.  The Texas State Comptroller's office takes control of closed checking and savings accounts, unpaid payroll checks, unclaimed mineral rights funds, etc.  The number to call is 1-800-654-FIND (1-800-654-3463).  To check online for Texas unclaimed money, go to

I found money for some family members (none for me, though) so it's worth a look.  Good Luck!!
