Looking for step dads will made prior to 2016

My Step father died in 2018. He had a will which named me as his beneficiary and executor. He was a resident in a long term care facility and had about $120k cash at the time of his death with no other property. This didn’t go through probate although perhaps it should have?? Who was responsible for notifying the probate court if anyone?
Present day, I found he has unclaimed property in Kansas, which is where he died. It would make things much easier if I had a copy of his will which I no longer have. Didn’t think I would need it this many years out. I’ve called the attorney who made the will. Her law office has closed, but she is looking to see if she still has the will somewhere She suggested I call the District Court. I called the District Court in the county where the will was created as well as the county where he died and both state they do not have it. Is there any other place I should be looking to try to find a copy of his will? Or do I just tell the unclaimed property division that there wasn’t a will since there isn’t now?

My NY State Tax Refund Was Stolen

My NY State tax refund was stolen. A check was mailed to me and cashed, but I never saw it. It was over $2000

I called the NY State Department of Taxation and Finance and verified that my check was mailed and cashed. I talked to a person on the phone and told them my story. The mailed me some paperwork.

In the paperwork was a TD210.1 form that I can use to swear that the check was stolen and cashed. I filled it out and got it notarized and mailed. Apparently they’ll get the money back and issue a new check. It could take up to 9 months.

Also in the paperwork was a copy of the check, front and back. Whoever signed it didn’t even try to forge my signature. The signature clearly doesn’t match the name on the front of the check. I can’t read it though.

Anyways. I want to file a police report. I went in person, but the police officer said that they need to know if the check was cashed in person or via mobile deposit. The exact crime depends on that.

How do I find this information? How was this check cashed?

The check was cashed at a Wells Fargo. I went in person to my local branch, but they told me they couldn’t give me that information. They said it looks like the check was cashed in person. There’s a stamped sequence number on the back. But it’s not 100% that that’s the case. They said to ask the state.

So I called the NY State Department of Taxation and Finance again, but they had no idea how the check was cashed.

What should I do? This person stole from me. I’d like to file a police report. Maybe I should also file a report with the Post Office? How can I find out how this check was cashed?

(Yes I should’ve used direct deposit. I don’t know why I didn’t. I’m dumb)

Edit: I do not have an account with Wells Fargo. I have no idea if the check thief has an account at Wells Fargo. I do know that the check was cashed at a Wells Fargo (and the Wells Fargo employee did not check the signature). Wells Fargo will not give me any information about this check
