As long as that property was put in trust, the executor has no legal right to upset what has been put in that trust. I understand that the executor is only present to fulfill the wishes of the deceased and abide by the rules and (your state) laws as to what needs to be finalized. there are instructions given per state how to act as executor (personal representative) of an estate. If the house was given to you and was NOT PUT IN TRUST before the individual deceased.....I can tell you now... U R SCREWED! I am sorry to inform you but I am just now dealing with all these issues as a personal representative for my siblings (7) and our parents did not put their property in trust. BIG MISTAKE! By right u should not even be living in the home... I am NOT an attorney, just a daughter who wants to finalize her parents life estate respectively. I wish you the best and Please Do Not Assume anything belongs to you, because you grew up in it or your parents said it was yours......we r not children after our parents go! Now you may find the executor to be the Referee or the Enemy!??! Just know not to take it out on them, they have no choice by the courts of law. Really I Wish You The Best! Get Informed Legally as I did and you will get alot of information. I am Sorry for your Loss, Bessie

The policy that required American Indians to maintain the land they were given in exchange for receiving American citizenship and ownership after 25 years is known as the Dawes Act of 1887. The act aimed to assimilate Native Americans into mainstream American society by dividing their land into individual allotments and encouraging them to adopt farming practices. It ultimately had devastating effects on Native American communities, leading to the loss of much of their traditional lands and ways of life.
The Ancient Egyptians believed in the preservation of the body after death as they believed the soul would return to it. Mummification helped to prevent decomposition and maintain the body's physical form.
