Question I have received a copy from my deceased fathers paperwork of CSX stock for 123 common shares which was been tranfered to my name in 1983. My father worked for the Chessie system for 28 years, and I'm wondering how many times this stock has split. I'm sure it was originally Chessie stock, also how would I go about finding if it has been cashed? If it has not been, what do I do with just a copy { both sides }? My mother suffers from memory loss, and is of no help. What if the original was stored in a safety box and has now become unclaimed property, my dad's been gone for almost 10 years?
Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide.
