If property is assigned or distributed to a person who cannot be found or who refuses to accept the property or to give a proper voucher therefor, or to a minor or incapacitated person who has no legal guardian to receive the property, or person authorized to receipt therefor, and the property or any part thereof consists of money, the personal representative may deposit the money, in the name of the assignee or distributee, with the county treasurer of the county in which the proceedings are pending. The county treasurer shall give a receipt for the money and is liable upon the official bond of the county treasurer therefor. The receipt must be received by the court as a voucher in favor of the personal representative with the same force and effect as if executed by the assignee or distributee.
