The General Treasurer’s office has released the list of 21,000 names, with claims worth $9.7 million.

Every year, the state releases the list of millions of dollars in unclaimed property. It include: inactive financial accounts, old payroll checks, the contents of various safe deposit boxes, and proceeds from life insurance policies, utility deposits, stocks and dividends, overpayments and several other financial properties.

Rhode Island is currently holding an estimated $146 million in unclaimed property dating back to the 1950’s.
