    Most states assume accounts that have been inactive for a specific time frame. I live in Virginia, and I know the time frame here is 5 years.

    If your husband and his mother have not had some active involvement in the account for an extended period, then the state may now have the funds. If the account has been active, then the new bank should still hold the account.

    As you are not on the account, they should not share information regarding the account with you, unless you husband has passed and you have a valid death certificate.

    If it is with the state, your state's web site will likely provide some direction as to who to contact regarding inactive accounts.
