A.Dear Sir,
If father is alive then he can execute a rectification deed otherwise you have to rely upon the other documents to establish that it was wrongly typed. It is not a serious lapse and it could be established by the contents of other document whose number was wrongly typed.

A.If the father is not alive ,then that Will cannot be corrected any more. To give opinion, actual facts are required to be known and who will give irrevocable POA to son that is also required to be known.

A.Hi,
When you submit the will for execution in Court, the Court can directly modify wills on the basis of external evidence in order to rectify the will. So, it is possible for your family to rectify the error by approaching the court.
