There is alot involved with this situation. Any help is appreciated.

Not sure we're to start as the whole thing is actually quite astonishing and upsetting. It's quite a long story but I'll try give the basic facts.
My dh learnt that the man he thought was his father is actually his step dad. His mum lied to him for a few years. I think due to domestic violence she thought it would be better. I don't know. However his real dad commited suicide, and she decided to tell him. This has had a real impact on his mental health. I've never known a family like it and you would never guess this is happening if looking in from the outside. For whatever reason his whole family continue to lie. Where he was buried, how he commited suicide, where he lived. It's like no one wants him to know anything. This is his father's side BTW.
I managed to find his death certificate. I just have no idea where to start to try help my dh get some answers. He has spoken to aunts who are very vague. We know he has an uncle but where do I start in finding him? He has a very common name. We are hoping he may have answers into his biological dad's life. Obviously there's alot to this background but hoping finding this man he can help.
Thank you.

@wibdib
I followed your link and no will. What's my next step in finding out who got assets of there were any apart from the horses we know about.
This was given by second wife but she died a few years ago and her son won't talk
