Just to add to fzzy's comments. Is your aunt claiming these are joint? Or does the bank show those accounts as joint? If the bank shows your uncle as sole owner, depending on the probate laws where you live, most of the time it is part of the general estate corpus and divided accordingly. Talking to an attorney who handles estate work would be a good idea.
