Section 38 of the Texas probate Code lists two possibilities. A person may die intestate either as to the person, ie no valid will, or as to property, ie a valid will which fails to dispose of all of the person’s property. The property is then distributed by the state law of descent and distribution. Two persons are related to each other by consanguinity if one is a descendant of the other or they share a common ancestor. Two persons are related to each other by affinity if they are married to each other or if the spouse of one of the persons is related by consanguinity to the other. Divorce terminates relationships by affinity. First is an intestate death leaving no husband or wife, no surviving spouse. We are dealing only with seperate property. All the property goes to the children and their descendants. Descendants are the offspring of the offspring, so this is usually grandchildren.
