Sirius Black Estate - Additional Point

I was just reading over some of the old Black Estate inheritance
threads and came across one very good point for us all to remember
when discussing this.

There are TWO estates in question; the Black Family Estate and Sirius
Black's personal estate.

Sirius Black seems to have money and property of his own that are
unrelated to the Black Family inheritance. Sirius inherited money from
his uncle and appears to have his own bank vault filled with gold. He
seems to have accumulated this property on his own while he was
estranged from his family, so I assume others in the Black family have
less claim to those personal asset than they do to the Black
Historical Family assets.

In a dispute between Draco and Harry over the Black estate, it's
possible that Harry. as godson, would qualify to inherit Sirius's
personal estate, and Draco as oldest living blood male would inherit
the Black Family Estate.

Note that Sirius's uncle DID Will him some gold, so Wills do have some
precedence in the wizard world. Although we must acknowledge that we
have NO information on the circumstances surrounding that inheritance.

Just thought I would add that point to the mix.
