The Kansas state treasurer's Unclaimed Property Division says it has returned more than half a million dollars to the largest single beneficiary in state history.

The Topeka Capital-Journal reports a life insurance beneficiary
payment of $516,000 had gone unclaimed because of an unknown
address.

Treasurer Ron Estes says in addition to that claim, his office
has taken in more than $28 million in unclaimed property and 600
safe deposit boxes this year.

The office has more than $230 million in unclaimed funds it's
seeking to return to the rightful owners.
