State of Tennessee looking to return $1 billion in unclaimed property to residents

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Department of Treasury is hoping to return nearly $1 billion in unclaimed property to residents.

According to the department, that unclaimed property is money that is turned over to the state by organizations that cannot locate the rightful owners.

To help reunite that money with its owners, representatives of the Unclaimed Property Division are planning to bring an unclaimed property booth to events across the state.
